Internet search engines at the time were slow and gave websites that weren't useful. In January 1996, Page and Brin decided to make a better and faster search engine. They thought the results should be based on the popularity of each website the most popular ones have the highest number of"weblinks' (links to other websites). Nobody would give them money for their project, so they used their credit cards and bought as much computer memory possible. They also borrowed money from family and friends. Then, in 1998, they were given a cheque for $100,000, started their own company. Their first office was in a friend's garage! The company name Google comes from mathematics. A googol' is a very high number 1 followed by a hundred zeros. The Google search engine was soon used by thousands of people worldwide because it was fast, easy and accurate. By 2002 it the biggest search engine on the Internet. Now more questions have been answered by Google than any other Internet service, from sport to science, and from music to medicine. Google hopes that in the future all the world's information will be put on the Internet, so that everybody can find everything.
