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.
