Google is fascinating, and the book isn't finished. I'm creating, living, building, and writing those chapters.

The reason I like my job is that I have this desire to create. I have this desire to create things and build things, and Google has enabled me to build and create things and to build products that are used by people all over the globe.

I have had a lot of setbacks that I have learned from.

My most radical shift was leaving Intel and joining Google, a small startup at the time, even though I was pregnant.

Let's face it: Engineering companies in general have more men than women. Google has tried really hard to recruit women. On the other hand, we have a standard. Google tries to recruit the best engineers.

Today, most young women are exposed to technology at a very young age, with mobile phones, tablets, the Web or social media. They are much more proficient with technology than prior generations since they use it for all their school work, communication and entertainment.

Work smart. Get things done. No nonsense. Move fast.
