If you hadn’t heard in the past couple of days, Google is turning 10 today, on September 7th, 2008.  The mammoth company that brings us the majority of our searches was born when Larry Page and Sergey Brin crossed paths at Stanford University in 1995.  As students they both founded the company, naming it after a 1 followed by 100 zeros.  They incorporated on September 7th, 1998 from a garage and the rest is history.  

 

Today we are offered everything from searches, email, applications and now a web browser.  Google started with the slogan "don’t be evil" and they have stood by that until the launch of the Chrome browser a couple days ago, which many think is part of their world domination plan.  Lets hope they continue to stand by that slogan for another ten years or beyond.
