My company project is on Google. The worlds most used and recognized search engines. Google founders are Larry Page and Sergey Brin two Stanford University students, in 1996 they built a search engine called BackRub, and at the time it used links to determine the importance of webpages. BackRub later turned into Google, although BackRub started in 1996 Google was registered as a domain on September 15th, 1997 and became incorporated on September 4th, 1998. Larry Page was actually a University of Michigan grad that was considering Stanford, and Sergey was his assigned tour guide. Google comes from the word “googol” which is a mathematical term for the number represented by the numeral 1 followed by 100 zeros. This was the name used to show Larry and Sergey’s mission to organize an infinite amount of information on the web. Google was based in Susan Wojcicki’s garage, and Google’s official first employ was Craig Silverstein. It’s main headquarters, better know as Googolplex is now located in Mountain View, California since 2004. Google today is located in more than forty countries around the world with more than seventy offices total. Larry Page was Google’s original CEO until 2001, but in April 2011 took up the title again, Eric Schmidt is the executive chairman today, and Andy Bechtolsheim was the first investor with a $100,000 check to Google before it was even considered a company.
The company has been up and running now for fifteen years now. And according to their website their mission statement is, “To organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful.” I feel that their mission statement is quite clear and being a daily Google user I feel that they have
successfully reached their mission....

With how the technology era keeps on growing I am sure that we are in from some neat inventions from Google. One thing that is making head lines is called the Google Glass. Google Glass are glasses that function as a phone. Internet-connected glasses, they are said to give you directions, let you video chat, shop and do everything else you now need a handheld gadget to accomplish. I feel that Google has only been around for fifteen years yet has so much more to offer. They are known as the largest search engine, best company to work for, and has locations all over the world. I myself am a daily Google user and will continue to be for as long as they are around.
It is true that Google has contributed immensely to the development of America, but one must not remain sidetracked by the holistic effects, and should instead delve deeper into the true principles of Google in order to realize that the company is, on the contrary, run by “robber barons”. Recently, Google has posted about the principles that guide the company: “do what’s best for the user”, “provide the most relevant answers as quickly as possible”, “label advertisements clearly”, “be transparent”, and “loyalty, not lock-in” (Rosoff). During Larry Page and Sergey Brin’s time at Stanford together, they wrote an essay titled: The Anatomy of a Large-Scale Hypertextual Web Search Engine

Google was founded by two University of Stanford graduate students Larry Page and Sergey Brin. Their main objective of founding the company was to be able to retrieve specific data from massive amounts of information. The two developed a proprietary technology that would become the ultimate search engine. Initially the pair worked out of their dorm room, then a garage, and once they had quickly outgrown these "facilities" they had moved on to a much larger facility where they reside to this day. It seemed to be a matter of time before they had conquered the continental United States, and had begun to eye the lands across the pond.

As any other company that managed to rise to fame, it was successful due to an exceptional organizational belief and value, Google company is no exception. Google Inc. practices a routine type of working condition for the scalability and its storage solution, managing the large scale application, as well as making a new platform. It is well known that a routine work is more stressful than any other work.
Its persistence and incredible energy are definably the keys of success. The first model created inside the company was focusing on the users, and the rest will be followed achieved. Also, the company figured out that being great at one thing was going to be the right path to follow. Plus, especially when dealing with technology, being able to provide a fast service was going to gain numerous customers. Moreover, Google’s model was based on democracy and ethical behavior. It is not necessary to become evil in order to be successful. Information is precious and a company like Google is always in need of information. There is plenty of information out there waiting to be found, and it only needs someone to look in the right place. Dressing like a professional does not make a person one. It takes skills, abilities and education. Finally, progress will never stop, and when someone thinks that he or she had reached the top, something will come up. In order to be successful, a person or a company should not stop
