What is Alphabet? Alphabet is mostly a collection of companies. The largest of which, of course, is Google. This newer Google is a bit slimmed down, with the companies that are pretty far afield of our main internet products contained in Alphabet instead. What do we mean by far afield? Good examples are our health efforts: Life Sciences (that works on the glucose-sensing contact lens), and Calico (focused on longevity). Fundamentally, we believe this allows us more management scale, as we can run things independently that aren’t very related.

I read about the easter egg on Twitter. Went looking for it but of course your cursor doesn't show it. That's pretty wel hidden if you don't have instructions. I like it.
I guess the bigger news from this is that Google will have a new CEO, as well:
Google co-founder Larry Page announced a massive restructuring of the company, instituting Sundar Pichai as CEO and shifting himself and co-founder Sergey Brin to a larger holding company called Alphabet.

By Bruh Go To PostGoogle, tired of constantly being in beta, decided to go back to the Alpha stage.
They explain the name actually, it literally means "betting that their profits will exceed expectations".
Earlier in the letter, they remind us of their old motto: “Google is not a conventional company. We do not intend to become one.”
Guess what's conventional about corporations? Profit-seeking first and foremost. Business as usual, lip service for naive people, and always scary when private entities have so much power.
It's really just a setup to make it easier to buy and sell off companies they're interested in or have developed to a certain point, without having to integrate their acquisitions into google proper.
