Abstract
Google is a firm which operates in the high technology sector, especially in the Internet field. The two founders started with "Google" website, an Internet site which gives people the possibility to research on the web. But the firm also offers all kinds of web services like "Street view", for example, and others which I will discuss later. At the beginning, Google was just a university project which was created in 1995 at the Stanford University. Three years later, in September 1998, Larry Page and Sergy Brin created the Google corporation in California (Silicon Valley). Since then, the company has grown exponentially to become one of the biggest corporations around the world.
Google's head office is located at Mountain View, and is named Googleplex. A student named Sean Anderson, a friend of Larry Page and Sergy Brin, came up with the name. His idea originates from a mathematical term "googol" which means 10100. Probably because when you do a research on google.com you can find over thousand results in a very short time. Since its creation, the number of employees has increased by leaps and bounds.
