25 Years of Google

Did you know that Google was incorporated 25 years ago, in September 1998?Or that it was originally made from Lego? (sort of)

Google began as a research project by Larry Page and Sergey Brin when they were students at Stanford in 1996. Originally named "BackRub." the name "Google" is a play on the word "googol," a mathematical term for the number 1 followed by 100 zeros. The name reflects the company's mission to organise the massive amount of information on the web.
