Chapter 752 The Internet Must Ultimately Be People-Oriented
Wu Tao has read a lot of such materials recently, and he is even tired of aesthetics.
After all, among the numerous entrepreneurial intentions, there are not many truly valuable whimsical ideas. Most of them are old wine in new bottles, and they use the name of the Internet to defraud some investment.
From this point of view, the media's advocacy that the Internet industry has become a bubble is not groundless.
But since Qiu Xiaotian brought this information, he should at least take a look at it, so that he can have an explanation when he asks about it in the future.
It's just that it doesn't matter if you look at it, it really made him discover a bright idea.
Web log project - WebLog.
At first glance, this project sounds like nothing out of the ordinary about blogging on the web.
But Wu Tao saw that the four letters behind it together are blog, blog.
This network communication method that will be very popular in a few years is the fourth popular trend after MSN, BBS and ICQ.
At one time, it was extremely popular, even surpassing the limelight of instant messaging such as MSN, ICQ, and QQ, and gradually replacing the original form of communication like BBS.
And more importantly, the technology behind this blog is actually similar to the Xiaonei social networking method that Wu Tao has been trying to figure out these days.
Thinking of this, Wu Tao immediately slapped his thigh and stood up.
Qin Xiaoxiao was cooking dinner in the kitchen, and Wu Yingying was helping.
So Wu Tao took the letter of intent directly to the restaurant, beckoned the two of them out and said, "This intention, why did you lose your pass?"
"Oh, this." Wu Yingying frowned and recalled: "Weblog, it sounds like a function that professional programmers only use. I feel that the audience is not wide enough, so the potential should be very limited."
Wu Tao asked: "If the other party can provide a form of editing, allowing ordinary people to write their own web pages and content like professional programmers, and then publish them, then the audience will have no problem."
"But the web log sounds like a private diary. Who would be willing to publish the contents of the diary? I'm afraid not many people use this function..." Wu Yingying's thinking is still stuck in a corner, and she can't get out.
It was Qin Xiaoxiao who was next to him thinking about it: "Boss, what do you mean, once this kind of web log is not limited to professional programmers, ordinary people can use it to write what they like on it, not limited to diaries, and maybe It’s a record of life, work and study, and even some technical sharing, isn’t it?”
Finally, there is an enlightenment.
Wu Tao said quite approvingly: "That's right, the richer the content that this kind of blog can cover, the more valuable its social attributes will be. So in the future, it can even support the editing and publishing of photos, music and even videos, then The role of the blog will be much wider, and it will even become an important part of the social media network!"
"...And this form can be used as a supplement to traditional search engines and become a part of the network sharing platform!"
After the three of them had such a discussion, their thoughts suddenly became clear.
So Wu Tao connected his idea about Xiaonei with the blog in front of him, and the framework of a new Internet social networking site stood up vividly and distinctly.
As a result, the three of them got more and more involved in the discussion, until there was a strong burnt smell coming from the kitchen, and then they came back to their senses.
"Oops, my braised pork..."
In the end, the dinner of the three of them lost a great deal of delicacies, leaving only a few surviving pieces of braised pork.
However, after intense discussions and spark collisions, the entrepreneurial ideas for Xiaonei.com and blog sites became more abundant and three-dimensional.
After dinner, Wu Tao decisively called Qiu Xiaotian and asked him to bring Jon Bagger, who proposed the weblog idea, to the company to meet him tomorrow.
Regarding this, Qiu Xiaotian was also very excited.
At least it shows that his recommendation is highly valued by Wu Tao.
Early the next morning, when Wu Tao and Qin Xiaoxiao were going out, they happened to meet Mo Li coming back from the outside exhausted.
Even saying hello seemed listless.
After saying goodbye to Molly, everyone drove straight to the Los Angeles branch of Apocalypse Investment.
After leaving the gate of the villa, Wu Yingying guessed and said, "It seems that Molly stayed in the nightclub HI all night again..."
"How do you know?" Qin Xiaoxiao didn't see it.
"That nightclub atmosphere can be smelled from a long distance away."
Wu Tao didn't speak, but he was thinking in his heart that a woman who can spend a whole night in a nightclub really cannot be offended, can't be offended.
The Los Angeles branch of Apocalypse Investment is hidden in the CBD area of the steel jungle in Los Angeles.
The company is small, with more than 30 employees, 80% of them are foreigners, and the rest are Chinese and Chinese trainees.
Although Wu Tao came here for the first time, Wu Yingying did not let Wu Yingying disclose her identity.
Anyway, I'm just here to talk about things today, there's no need to make such a big fuss, it's too high-profile.
And now, he doesn't need to look for a sense of existence like this.
At exactly ten o'clock, Qiu Xiaotian arrived as scheduled with a brown-haired man of medium build.
After recommending the two parties to meet each other, Qiu Xiaotian hid at the front desk to tease the blond horse. As for whether the person he brought could pass Wu Tao's test, he didn't care at all.
Business meeting room.
Wu Tao is really not flattered about the image of Jon Bagger.
Although as a programmer or an IT person, you are not the kind of person who pays special attention to the image, but you have a big beard, a medium build, and you wear this hat. If you don’t know, you may think that you are a primitive man who ran out of some cave. .
The big beard all over the face is really disgusting, even drinking a cup of coffee will inevitably stain the beard, and it can't be wiped off cleanly.
If Wu Tao is like this, let alone Qin Xiaoxiao and Wu Yingying's disgust for this guy.
But the three of them just exchanged glances with each other, and no one showed it.
And when the topic focused on Jon's weblog, Wu Tao found that this guy was beaming and dancing, all talking about the content "Robot Wisdom" promoted and introduced on his weblog, which is the topic of intelligent robots.
On the contrary, he does not focus on the weblog itself and the technical realization behind it.
Looking back, Wu Tao looked through the project book that this guy handed over. The focus was indeed on promoting his own weblog, rather than building a weblog platform, promoting and developing it.
Looks like I got the wrong guy this time.
After letting this guy talk for half an hour, Wu Tao decisively ended the interview.
However, since the technology of weblog has appeared, it means that the trend of people-oriented Internet technology such as blog and Xiaonei network has already taken shape.
Otherwise, Google, a rising star of the search engine, would not catch up from behind and surpass the search engines of so many portal websites, and eventually become a leader in the Internet industry.
After dismissing Jon, Wu Yingying turned around and asked, "Boss, what should we do now? Should we openly recruit talents in this field and form a team to do it ourselves?"
Wu Tao waved his hand and said, "Don't make a big fuss about this matter for now. I'll discuss it with Mr. Yang of Yahoo first."
