In 1826, Joseph Nicepore Niepce published images of his camera's shadow, a blurry image of the roofs of a house on a slab of leaded tin mixture which became known as the first photograph.

Google


There are many stories and interesting media coverage about Google. But apparently, there are still unique facts that have not been known by many people about the company. The facts are displayed on the Quora question and answer site. Here are some interesting unique facts.

The name Google was born because of "accident". The history of Google starts from a project done by Larry Page and Sergey Brin in 1996. At that time, the two graduate students at Stanford University collaborated on developing a search engine called BackRub, which operated using servers on their campus.

In 1997, Larry and Sergey changed the name BackRub to Googol. "Googol" is a mathematical term for the number 1 followed by 100 zeros. This name is taken to describe Google's mission as a warehouse of unlimited information on the internet.

However, investors have apparently misspelled Googol's name into Google, and have written it in check. It made Brin and Page finally "stuck" using the Google name for their search engine.

Google is one of the digital companies that aggressively acquire potential startup. Among other things, YouTube, Android, Motorola Mobility, Pyra Labs develop Blogger, as well as Keyhole Inc. that gave birth to Google Maps and Google Earth services.

Up to now, there have been hundreds of startups (startups) acquired by Google. Since 2010, if averaged, then Google has acquired more than one company every week.

Google's homepage appears clean since the first time it operates because the first two founders did not master HTML. Page and Brin also want search engines with a compact interface. Therefore, search through Google is simple. Users simply press the Enter key after entering the search keyword.

Up to now, Google's clean look of the homepage, featuring only logos and search boxes, is retained.

There are other interesting facts. Google search index has a giant size, which is more than 100 million gigabytes. In other words, it takes more than 100,000 personal hard disks of 1 terabyte to store the search index.

To display information on Street View apps that are part of Google Maps, if totaled, then Google has taken a 5 million mile or 8.046 million km roadmap.

In 2012, Google has found more than 30 trillion unique URLs on the web. Try to compare with the number of unique URLs in 2008, which amounted to only 1 trillion!

One more unique fact about Google. The company is known as the largest and most important digital company in the world. However, there is still a code error on the Google home page.
