Although both, the video and Wikipedia, informed people about Google. each had different information regarding the famous search engine. I felt that video was much more detailed than Wikipedia in all the information that was seen throughout it. Some things that were seen in great detail in the video and were not really mentioned in Wikipedia were the corporate culture of Google and privacy problems Google may have. On the other hand, there were also some things that were seen in Wikipedia that the video did not consist of. For example, information about the influence of Google in China can be seen in the Wikipedia article.
