		Jeeves is well known for his convoluted, yet precise, speech and for quoting from the plays of Shakespeare and famous romantic poets.
		Jeeves and Bertie first appeared in "Extricating Young Gussie", a short story published in September 1915, in which Jeeves' character is minor and not fully developed.

		The company's signature cartoon butler, known as Jeeves, was a symbol of dot-com excess, of untold millions spent marketing, of layoffs, of a highflying stock that soared as high as $169 and later could be had for under a buck.
		Jeeves was initially known for its gimmick: It promised to answer any query formed in a question.
		For its recent third quarter, Jeeves reported $75.7 million in revenue, up 178% from the same quarter a year ago, similar to Google's third-quarter results, which were up 105%, and Yahoo's 157% revenue growth.

		In 2004, Jeeves "went missing," and later it was revealed that he was on a "world tour." Upon return, the butler had transformed into a trimmer, slimmer character.
		But when IAC bought Ask Jeeves last year, the butler apparently was left out of the negotiations.

	The Ask.com Blog: Thanks, Jeeves (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		It's funny, when you consider that he's just a static drawing of a butler-ish figure on a website (and that he was very nearly a "wise owl" or a "wizard" rather than a butler), how much the Jeeves character has come to mean for people over the years.
		But even for these people, Jeeves means something -- a place to go to ask questions -- and in their minds it will be difficult to ever think of him as anything more.
		Before Jeeves was given the boot retired after ten years of service, it seems he was given the task of travelling Europe for Ask.com's next big offering, Ask.com Maps and Directions.

		Wodehouse hit his stride in the 1920s (at approximately the age of forty!), and Right Ho, Jeeves, the latest work published here, dates from 1934, so these are works from the beginning of his greatest period, which, for my money, runs to the mid-1950s (Wodehouse lived until Valentine's Day 1975).
		Wodehouse's "Life With Jeeves" is a three-part volume containing "The Inimitable Jeeves", "Very Good, Jeeves!" and "Right Ho, Jeeves." The first two are collections of tales and the third is one long story.
		Jeeves, "a bird of the ripest intellect, the source of all solace" time and time again devises an intricate plan that will not only rescue Bertie and his friends from the most terrifying situations but that will even benefit them.

	Mini-reviews of the Jeeves novels of P. G. Wodehouse
		Despite Jeeves' not even being in Bertie's employ for most of this first full-length Jeeves and Bertie novel, this is an extremely fun book.
		Pauline Stoker escapes from her father's yacht and ends up in Bertie's heliotrope pajamas; Bertie sleeps in potting sheds and summer houses; valet Brinkley (“versatile chap”) burns down a cottage and runs amuck with carving knives, choppers, and potatoes; Bertie spends much of his time covered in burnt cork; and Glossop and Bertie reach détente.
		Jeeves doesn't have much to do, and the plot and Bertie-isms seem to be largely recycled from previous novels.
