In the last 10 years, Google has been very busy. It’s hard to believe that it was just 10 years ago that the Google search engine first hit the web;
Google was founded on September 7, 1998 after receiving a $100,000 check from Andy Bechtolsheim, co-founder of Sun Microsystems. Now, after establishing themselves as a major search player, Google has 20,000 employees, a $150 billion market cap, and is considered one of the biggest and most powerful computer networks in the world.

Today Google is responsible for roughly two-thirds of U. S. search traffic, and with its easy-to-use search engine, boasts no less than 30 tools and services; from e-mail to mapping, blogs, advertising, online video, Photos, Calendar, etc…
Google still has a lot in its to-do list, promising with a lot of development in the future, and showing no signs of slowing down.
