CNBC goes inside Google for a behind-the-scenes look at the company that created the world s most popular internet search engine. Who and what is behind the phenomenon that hundreds of millions of people rely on every day? See how Google came to dominate the search industry, its strategies for growth and whether it s a threat to privacy. CNBC s Maria Bartiromo takes viewers inside the economic juggernaut, revealing how Googleplex executives manage the global powerhouse they created in less than a decade. The one-hour documentary delivers a comprehensive look at Google's crown jewel-- its Internet search engine- the most visited web site in the world. In fact, despite formidable competition, nearly two-thirds of Internet searches worldwide are done on Google. With nearly two billion searches on its website every day, Google has access to an unprecedented amount of information about its users. By what we search for online, what we say in our email, what we read and where we spend our time on the Internet, we each leave a remarkably detailed trail of information about ourselves. What exactly does Google do with all that information? Bartiromo presses Google executives on the issue and talks to privacy advocates who say the company's accumulation of personal data may present a looming threat to its users. This is an unprecedented look at Google's stunning economic success... and how it became a cultural phenomenon. DVD includes more than 20 minutes of exclusive bonus material.
