Google Celebrates 7th Birthday

Sep 27 2005, 1:15pm EST | by Luigi Lugmayr

Seven years ago Google started in a tiny little office in Silicon Valley. Read the glorious history here. See also the Happy Birthday Google discussion on Slashdot.

Google is running these days into widespread criticism, because Google plays such an important role in the life of Internet users.
Google is also expanding in all directions, which of course bothers all kinds of companies and interest groups.
For me Google still is my favorite search engine - So, Happy Birthday Google! Today Google also showed the first episode of UPN's sitcom "Everybody Hates Chris" on the Google Video site. I hope Google is soon making a deal with Comedy Central to give me legal access to the Daily Show.
