Larry Page is the inventor of Google. He invented it in January in 1996. But L arry did not invent this by himself; he had help by Co- Founder and President, Sergey Brin . They got this idea because he wanted to improve technology. They didn’t really have many problems during this process. Their invention made a HUGE impact on society, because almost EVERYONE uses it in everyday life, to do a lot of things.



The Google website was created in September 15, 1997 but the company never started until September 7, 1998.



Larry and Sergey met in grad school. They were meant to be partners and Sergey was going to show him around the campus. When they first met, they couldn't agree on anything. They first started a website called BackRub. They later changed the name to Google. They named it this because of the math term "googol" which is a one with a hundred zeros. They wanted to relate it to googol because they wanted to represent the fact that they could have infinite amount of results from the internet. They ended up making Google simple, with no designs other than their famous logo and a search box. But everyone seemed to love it that way.
