Digital wars : Apple, Google, Microsoft and the battle for the Internet

Apple, Google and Microsoft are locked in a battle to dominate the Internet and especially the fastest-growing part of it - mobile. All three have fought each other in previous wars, and now they want to dominate search technology, cloud computing, mobile music and the smartphone market. Whoever wins will exert a wide ranging control over user data and access to content, and even how we use and interact with computers. Digital Wars assesses who will be the victor and what the implications are for business, individuals and society. Accessible and comprehensive, it looks at the very different cultures of each business, the iPhone, Android, iPods (mobile music) and the browser and apps battles. Digital Wars tells you what to expect from the Internet in the next five years, which company will ultimately be in the driving seat, and what the implications will be for us all.

  • "" The first time that Apple, Google and Microsoft found themselves sharing the same digital space was 1998. They were radically different companies that would subsequently fight a series of battles for control of different parts of the digital landscape that would be world-changing. Arthur looks at what are now the three best-known tech companies and through the voices of former and current staff examines their different strategies to try to win the battle to control the exploding network connecting the world. To win their battles: Apple used design and a relentless focus on the customer to the exclusion of others; Microsoft depended on the high quality of its employees' programming skills and its monopolies in software to move into new markets; Google focused on being quick, efficient and using the power of data analysis to make decisions and get ahead of would-be rivals. Accessible and comprehensive, Digital Wars analyzes the very different cultures of the three companies and assesses exactly who are the victors on each front. The new edition will be brought up to date since the last edition in 2012, taking into account the growth of Android, mini-tablets and Microsoft's Surface. It also includes a new chapter looking at how China moved from being the assembly plant for iPods and other music players, and smartphones, to becoming the world's biggest smartphone business -- while shutting out Google both as a search engine and smartphone provider"--"
