Fourteen yearso ago, I wrote the first web spider, back when the web
was small. It was called the Wanderer. Based off of it, I wrote the
first web search engine, called "Wandex". It was not very good, but
again, the web was small. Within a year, numerous better web search
engines appeared. But, I am proud to have had the opportunity to be
first.
In the years since, I started a web analytics company, earned two
degrees, joined a hardware startup, and started a wireless location
company. Now, I have come full circle. In February, I started work
at Google in Boston. The first month has been great and it's a
remarkable company.
