The name Google was however an accident as misspelled, as the founders thought they were going with the word <strong>\u201cGoogol&#8221;<\/strong>. The number one followed by a hundred zeros, was basically chosen to signify that this search engine would intend at providing huge quantities of information.<\/p>\n<p>IN fact, during the initial days Google used to run under Stanford University\u2019s website and had the domain of z.stanford.edu and google.stanford.edu.<\/p>\n<p>The domain name Google, was registered on the <strong>15th September, 1997 <\/strong> and the company got incorporated in 1998 on 4th September. The company in the early days ran in a garage of a friend while a fellow Ph.D. student was hired as the first employee.<\/p>\n<h3><i><u>Some interesting facts about Google:<\/u><\/i><\/h3>\n<p>\u2022 The reason Google home page is so simple is because the founders had no knowledge of HTML and wanted a quick interface. In fact it was noted that hitting the Return key was the only answer to bring Google into life.<br \/>\n\u2022 During testing days it was noted that people simply used to look at the screen thinking it was still loading and there was more to come. As a result, the Google Copyright message was inserted to mark as end of the page.<br \/>\n\u2022 One of the biggest steps in the Google search came when they introduced the spell checker \u201cDid you mean\u2026\u201d feature. This feature doubled their traffic instantly.<br \/>\n\u2022 Google provides the largest network of translators from across the world.<br \/>\n\u2022 Gmail was primarily used internally only, before being launched for the public.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Did You Know?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Feedbacks are always listened to and monitored at Google actively. So, when emailing to Google, rest assured of not emailing to a blackhole. If have a feedback; Mail it!
