INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT GOOGLE:
1. The name GOOGLE was an accident. A
spelling mistake made by the original founders
who thought they were going for GOOGOL.
Googol is a mathematical term 1 followed by
one hundred zeroes.
2. Google started in January, 1996 as a
research project at Stanford University by Ph.D
students Larry Page and Sergey Brin.
3. 97% of Google revenue comes from their
advertising services.
4. The biggest break in search came when
Google introduced their improved spell checker
seen as 'Did you mean?'. This feature doubled
their traffic.
5. The infamous 'I’m feeling lucky' button is
nearly never used. However, in trials it was
found that removing it would somehow reduce
the Google experience. Users wanted it kept. It
was a comfort button.
