Google was born of a meeting of two young men who happened by accident in 1995. Larry Page, an alumnus of the University of Michigan (24), who was enjoying a weekend visit, accidentally met with Sergey Brin, one of his disciples (23) is in charge drove around Lary.
In a meeting earlier accident, the two founders of Google are often involved lengthy discussions. Both have different opinions and views that are often involved in the debate. However, differences in thinking they would produce a unique approach in solving one of the biggest challengeIs in the computer world. Namely, the problem of how to recover data from massive data sets.On January 1996, Larry and Sergey began to collaborate in making search engine called BackRub. A year later their unique approach to network analysis BackRub's reputation. News of the new techniques of search engine immediately spread to all corners of campus.Larry and Sergey continue to improve Google technologies throughout early 1998. Both also began looking for investors to develop the technological sophistication of Google.Bailer was intercepted. They received an injection of funds from the campus friend, Andy Bechtolsheim, a founder of Sun Microsystems. '' We met with Andy in the early morning, at the faculty of Stanford dorm hall, in Palo Alto,'' said Sergey. '' We give a brief demo because Andy did not have a long time. Then, he just said, 'Why do not I write a check to you?''A check for 100 thousand U.S. dollars is given by Andy Bechtolsheim. Unfortunately, the check was written on behalf of Google. Yet when the company called Google has not been established by Sergey and Larry.Investment from Andy becomes a dilemma. Larry and Sergey could not check during telecasts no legal institution called the company Google. Therefore, the two founders of Google are returning to work hard in search of investment. They are looking for funders of the family, friends and colleagues and finally collected funds of about 1 million dollars. And finally, Google the company can set up in 7 Septembar 1998 and officially opened in Menlo Park, California.Naming GoogleGoogle's name with two 'o' was unique. For, if the data results are found, the number of 'o' will appear as obtained by the web search engine.The word Google is derived from googol. These words had been created by Milton Sirotta, nephew of Edward Kasner, a mathematician from the United States. Sirotta make the term googol to mention the number one (1) is followed by 100 zeros (0).Extraordinary. Googol is a word that shows a number of very large numbers. Numbers that exceed the number billion or trillion. And in this universe there is no object, amounting to googol's. It's not a star, it's not dust particles, and are not atomic.Therefore, the use of the word Google is a reflection of the word googol. With these words, Google is trying to reflect on itself as a company whose mission is to manage something so vast and limitless. And that is only found in the world where information is abundant saiber indefinitely.
