Google model, anything to learn for domainers?

Some view Google as a media company. It isn't, because it doesn't create its own content. Rather it repurposes and repackages pre-existing material. Google is really little more than a content syndicator, a broker that makes money through information arbitrage.

Google takes its name from the mathematical term "googol," which stands for a 1 followed by 100 zeros, a number said to be greater than the sum of all the particles in the universe. Obviously few of us, save perhaps a handful of farsighted astronomers, have need for a word that conveys so much.

it iwll take google a long time to index that may websites!

Thats a pretty interesting article. However, I still see Google as a media company. True, search is their main business, but all their revenue comes from their advertising. Without the advertising revenue, there would be no money, which would mean not enough servers, which would mean no Google.
