以下是世界聞名的Time雜誌上，作家Douglas Coupland專訪的一段內容。（對了，文章標題叫做"Is Google God?"。）
該位仁兄寫過一本小說叫"Microserfs"，最新力作叫"J Pod"。這樣各位瞭解他是怎樣的人了吧。（該不會島內一堆Jxx的藝人也在打這個名字的主意吧？）
TIME: In JPod you compare Google to God. Why?
DC: Not so much Google itself, but the way you feel after using it really intensely for a long time. Suddenly you know the answer to everything. I used to be one of those people who was going through the reference section of the local library. I used to phone up Merriam-Webster in Springfield, Massachusetts — by the way, they loved it — and ask a question about a neologism or something. Now you just burn out on knowing the answer to everything. This is what God must be like knowing everything. How many times have I been in a restaurant and wanted to clap my hands and have Google come down from ceiling and solve an argument?
這段文字應該道出許多鬻文為生者的心聲吧。
