Birth of Google


Ah, some of you were around on the net during the beginnings of Google, some of us, including me, was'nt (I was like 8 when google first came out!)
So I was amazed when I saw the very site which started it all.

I found all of the following on the wayback machine.. it's an amazing archive of the internet. over 100 terabytes of stored websites.

Google.com
November 11, 1998

As you can see, Google released the Prototype of their search engine script. They also had a very interesting logo, a 'GOOGLE!" with an exclamation point.
