On September 7, 2008, Google will turn 10! Google has come a long way since 1998 and is now believed to index around 40 BILLION websites! Not only that, the word google has now become a verb used in daily conversation. "Have you heard the latest about Paris Hilton?" "No, but I'll google it when it I get home."
If you'd like a nostalgic look at how Google appeared when it was first introduced, go here:

Google's initial goal was to build a company that would be successful enough to sustain 80 employees. They now employ over 20,000!
