Today, Google.cn announced that they offer a new Chinese input Method to Chinese users. Few hours later, an angry article was post in www.techweb.com.cn, which is one of the most famous Chinese computer tech forums, and declared that the wordlist of the Google’s new Chinese input Method copied a same wordlist from sogou.com, which is an important searching engine company in China. And sougou.com launched its Chinese input Method few months ago.
The article showed some evidence to prove that Google.cn did copied the wordlist of sogou.com.com’s. Some picture shows that google’s new Chinese input Method has the same mistakes in Chinese spelling as well as that of sogou.com’s. And when user inputs the abbreviation of some Chinese names or nicknames of numbers of sogou.com.com’s program designers, google’s input Method can spell out the full names. Some of the names are not very familiar even for Chinese people.
Google Fans tried to fight back, explain that it is google’s searching engine that collected those words and names from Internet, the evidence can not prove anything except the pride and prejudice of the Chinese program designers’. Google.cn has no comment for this event till now.
