Larry Page takes the command of Google

The kid has matured enough to prove he can take over the daily management of the company. Larry Page the town stands today as CEO of Google, Eric Schmidt robs after a decade at the head of the Silicon Valley giant, which in the digital era is facing competition from new rivals such as Facebook, Twitter Groupon.

The vision and intelligence of Page, 38 years, no one discusses. And under the leadership of the former CEO had time to prepare to lead a company that is more than a search engine capable of generating U.S. $ 29,300 million   in revenue. But the big test comes now, as well as good ideas will have to face to investors with arguments and results.

The reality is changing very fast in the technological world, with the emergence of new mobile devices and social platforms. A traditional competitors such as Microsoft, Apple and Yahoo, are added young players struggling to hit the succulent bite of Internet advertising pie, which Google now takes the largest piece.

And as happened to the signature of Bill Gates, Larry Page is something that should look great on the new stage facing the company, not running into excessive distractions that put at a disadvantage against rivals who can eat the ground.
