Playboy Publishes More of the Google Interview on Playboy.com

Playboy magazine on Tuesday published previously unsyndicated interview excerpts to its Web site from its interview with Google’s founders. The original interview was published just before the Internet search engine’s much-anticipated initial public offering.

In the never before seen excerpt on Playboy.com, Google co-founder Larry Page talks about Google’s management structure.

CNet Reports:

“Since there was so much interest, we thought we’d post all of the interview to the Web site,” said Theresa Hennessey, a spokeswoman for Playboy.

A Google representative declined to comment.

The excerpts touch largely on Google’s management structure.

In comments, Page said: “We want a thin structure. It could be too thin. The downside is that people don’t get the attention they need, especially the more junior people. But there’s a trade-off. We’re all more connected to one another, and more work gets done.”
