Search giant Google has an annual tradition of founders Larry Page
and Sergey Brin penning letter to employees on the company's progress and
priorities during the year. The custom dates back to the year 2004 when Page
and Brin wrote the famous letter titled "Google is not a conventional
company. We do not intend to become one.
This year Google's new CEO Sundar Pichai got to write the letter.
This follows the massive restructuring that Google underwent in August last
year in which it separated its core Internet Business from its other 'moonshot'
projects and clubbed them all under a new umbrella company called Alphabet.
The letter starts with a small introduction from Google co-founder
Page, where he praises Pichai for his performance as new Google CEO. In his
message, Pichai outlines six core areas of focus for Google across product
lines.
