Here is a quote about the just-published book on Google by Steve Vise, which 
appeared on the WashingtonPost.com website:

    In my view, this is the hottest business, media and technology success of
    our time, with a stock market value of $110 billion, more than the combined
    value of Disney, The Washington Post, The New York Times, The Wall Street
    Journal, Amazon.com, Ford and General Motors.

This quote is not a book quote, but a quote from the website. There was supposed 
to be an actual excerpt from the book, but it is missing, and only Vise's preface 
was left.

I had no idea that Google was that big (even in stock value). The full context of 
the quote is found at: http://tinyurl.com/aa99j
