我一直在想这样这样形态的云计算的意义在哪里。我想不得不先说下微软和facebook。我一直以为微软不做facebook是因为不屑,但是去年微软出资上亿美金只购买了1.5%的facebook股权,这事儿明显说明:微软真做不出。为什么呢?一个软件业公认的老大,要人有人,几乎全是业界精英,要钱有钱,而且当时IE浏览器占有率超过九成,再加上当时就有全球第二大博客产品:MSN space。这一切都显得让人疑惑,今天看一老美在reddit的论述,似乎有了解答。他认为Thomas Jefferson的republic理论也是公司架构的理论:“humans tend to be much more efficient when organized into smaller and smaller teams. They become even more efficient when organized into small teams and provided a great number of resources.”,同时他认为这就是google现在的样子:”This means Google can act as a giant organization loosely overseeing hundreds of mini-organizations”。
