It's your birthday, my google

On September 15, 1997, two 24-year-old students at Stanford University, Larry. # 183; Paige and Sage # 183; Brin registered the domain name google.com, and on September 7, 1998,Google was born in a private car garage in northern California.

Google was able to quickly become famous, mainly because its search rules can effectively provide users with the search results they need.

In 2000,Google began selling keyword ads. Despite the bursting of the dot-com bubble,Google was still profitable.

In 2004, Google made its initial public offering at a price of $85. Today,Google's stock price has reached $525, giving it a market capitalization of $164 billion.

In 2006,Google generated $13.4 billion in revenue and $3.7 billion in net profit. That same year,Google acquired YouTube, and in April of this year announced the acquisition of DoubleClick for $3.1 billion.

At present,Google employs 13,700 people, and the two founders, who are only in their 30s, are each worth $16 billion.
