Google recently started showing job postings in their search results (at least here in Canada). I suppose this will affect indeed.com, monster.com, and a site I had stake in. I love monetizing niche search engines and other data products, but it looks like Google will eventually get into any industry where the main source of traffic is organic search, I wonder what is next.


They struck deals with a number of job sites to get that data. It's not as one-sided as it might seem.


Until they no longer need that data because they "harvest" it themselves.
