Who would’ve thought that our little search engine would grow into the mean kid on the block? Google turns 10 officially but I am still not sure of the exact date. According to mashable, the exact date of Google’s conception is unknown and it is done on purpose for marketing purposes.
And, while some have written about it almost a month ago, only now Google is officially “celebrating” its birthday by releasing a special tenth anniversary page , featuring an interactive timeline of the company’s history.
They’ve also launched Project 10100 , described as “a call for ideas to change the world by helping as many people as possible. ”
Check out the introductory video below.
I think its a quite a nice and emotionally charged PR move to connect Google with the masses. Maybe Microsoft should’ve done somethign like this instead of wasting billions on Sienfeld/Bill Gates fiasco?
