They met in 1993, when they were studying computer science at Stanford University, USA. They dreamed of producing something that could also answer any question in seconds.Internet search engines at that time were slow and gave many 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 most popular websites.Nobody would give them money for their project, so they used their own money. They also borrowed money from family and friends. Then, in 1998, they were given a cheque (支票) for $100,000, and they started their own company with the money. Their first office was in a friend’s garage (车库). The company’s name is Google, a word which comes from math. A “google” is a very high number—I followed by a hundred zeros.The google search engine was soon used by thousands of people around the world because it was fast, easy and correct. By 2002 it was the biggest search engine on the Internet. Now, Google has answered more questions than any other Internet service, from sports to science, and from music to medicine.
