In 1934, Paul Otlet realized that the wires and radio waves connecting the world could be used for more than chatter and entertainment, but also to bring the world’s knowledge into any home.

In his Radiated Library vision, people would place a telephone call requesting information to a great library. It wasn’t as easy as typing a question into Google, but Otlet was making the most of the technology he had.

Librarians would pull the information and send the pages as TV signals for what Otlet called the Televised Book. He also suggested dividing the screen into sections to display several books — what we know as opening multiple windows or browser tabs.

Google is not just pulling data from Wikipedia and other sources like the CIA’s World Factbook. Their system accounts for a much larger pool of information and data because of their ability to connect with people who search for things on the web. This gives Google (to date) more than 500 million objects to use with over 3.5 billion facts about the relationships between these different objects.

Here’s what you can expect from Google’s knowledge graph: READ MORE
