Google is one of the largest, most influential technology companies in the world. But it didn't start out that way, and it's not easy to maintain that status. Google Executive Chairman and former CEO Eric Schmidt has shared some insight as to how Google views innovation and the competition.

Schmidt and Google's former SVP of Products Jonathan Rosenberg are publishing a book next month called "How Google Works." The book dives into what Schmidt and Rosenberg learned as they helped build Google into what it is today. 

Schmidt has been teasing the book by posting excerpts of illustrations and various tips from the book to his Google+ and Twitter page. His latest post emphasizes that tackling the market with different angles rather than simply trying to be better than your rival is crucial for success. 

"It’s important to understand what’s going on around you, but the best way to stay ahead is a laser focus on building great products that people need," Schmidt posted to Google+ along with the illustration.

At one time duct tape only came in a single color: silver. It made the material seem like some kind of NASA-engineered, space-age, super tool, but eventually mankind demanded more. Colors and patterns were introduced, but that still wasn't enough to satiate humanity's desire for choice. So Duck Brand is now introducing scented duct tape as well, making your hackney repairs smell downright delicious.

HIYO, totally thought that dude's finger was a pecker at first. Because what man hasn't dreamed of sporting a BlueTooth and Wi-Fi connected ring around his wiener, this is the Bondara SexFit penis ring sexual performance evaluator. It vibrates for pleasure, has performance indicating lights, and connects to your smartphone via BlueTooth/Wi-Fi to upload your stats so you and your lover can both share a sad laugh about your fourteen total thrusts and just how ironic that 'World's Greatest Lover' coffee mug you bought yourself is. TRUTH NUKE: If you have to buy yourself an award, you probably don't deserve it.

Worn at the base of the penis and connected to a free mobile app via Bluetooth, this hi-tech [penis] ring not only stimulates a harder erection with the tight band but tracks your performance during sex using internal technology similar to a pedometer. Powerful stimulating vibrations will tantalise both partners during use much in the same way as a conventional [penis] ring, but also allow for a revolutionary 'pacing mode' that vibrates in time to a pre-set rhythm. Match the rhythm with your thrusts for the most effective stimulation. Notification lights on the top of the ring will also show what mode the SexFit is in, and illuminate in the centre when the rhythm is steady. Users can upload their 'workout' to the app and track their performance with the accompanying SexFit app that will provide insights into your intimate workout, including calories burnt and thrusts per minute. Much like other similar fitness tracker innovations, the SexFit allows the most dedicated users to share and compare their favourite sessions and impressive individual milestones with their peers on social media.

Wait -- so people are gonna start posting their hump session stats to social media? I guess it's about time I clean up my friends list so I don't have to hear about it. Also, just watch -- it's only a matter of time before some guy's girlfriend is tagged in some other dude's penis stats, and shit hits the fan. "I swear, I was just masturbating to Facebook!" I imagine him confessing at gunpoint. Thanks to PYY, who agrees the only sexual performance stat that really matters is how good your lover feels during and after. Plus if you're real good they might even make you a snack!

Where is the internet? This map might explain it better than any statistics could ever hope to: The red hot spots show where the most devices that can access the internet are located.

Amazon certainly thinks that Twitch is a good investment, as it just spent nearly $1 billion to buy Twitch and all of its live-game-streaming accoutrement. It turns out Twitch stacks up well against a lineup of cable networks, drawing in more viewers...

Those creeps and ghouls who chased Scooby-Doo and the gang around weren’t all that scary, because the adventures had to stay kid friendly, but what if some of horror’s most infamous slashers had co-starred in those Scooby Doo mysteries?

Scenes from the show might have looked an awful lot like these ghoulishly great artworks by illustrator Travis Falligrant, aka IB Trav, and the little viewers at home would've had nightmares for the rest of their lives.

Trav clearly wasn't impressed by the original Scooby-Doo baddies, so he raised the stakes by adding actual slashers like Freddy Krueger and Jason Voorhees to the classic cartoon mystery, careful to keep that signature Hanna-Barbera style in each character design.

It's a good thing real horror movie slashers weren't included in the original show, or the gang probably wouldn't have made it past the first season!

Thom Atkinson, a photographer, has documented the personal gear carried by British soldiers from nearly a millennium ago until today. In addition to the photos of 13 kits, you can also find detailed descriptions of their contents. They show what Britons carried into battle across the world, from Jerusalem to Goose Green and Naseby. Pictured above is what an Anglo-Saxon warrior might heft at the Battle of Hastings in 1066.

I started listening to The Beach Boys when I was about five years old. They inform my taste in music to this very day. But like most things we loved in childhood, I lost track of The Beach Boys. Nearly forgot them. Then I heard this track by a DJ and producer named Bullion, and it took me right back.
