Google is an American internet and computer software company. It was founded by Sergei Brin and Larry Page (the “Google guys”), and has been operating since 1998. Their original objective was to ”organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful.” Later, they added the phrase “Don’t be evil” to promote their anti-corporate philosophy. The name Google comes from a misspelling of “googol” – the number one, followed by one hundred zeros.
