Steve Ballmer vows to " KILL " Google
Quote:
Google announced on Thursday that it has hired Internet pioneer Vint Cerf, as the search giant seeks to build a network foundation for its future Internet applications.
Cerf, who codesigned TCP/IP, will help Google develop architectures, systems and standards for next-generation applications, the company said.
"Vint Cerf is clearly one of the great technology leaders of our time," Eric Schmidt, Google's chief executive, said in a statement. "His vision for technology helped create entire industries that have transformed many parts of our lives."
In 1973, Cerf co-designed TCP/IP for the US military while working as a Stanford University assistant professor and DARPA scientist. He worked at MCI for most of his career, with an eight-year break to work at the Corporation for National Research Initiatives.
