Thanks for this little insight. I've got to run and short GOOG stock now.
For the first question, is that the official answer? Or is it your version? Because 1112221111 is just as well an answer (each number is composed by combining the halves of the previous two numbers, and then switched)
The second question is my own version, I'm pretty sure it's the right answer.
