History of google

            Google is an American multinational corporation specializing in Internet-related services  and  products. These  include   online  advertising  technologies, search,cloud computing, and software. Most of its profits are derived from AdWords.

            Google was founded by Larry Page and Sergey Brin while they were Ph.D. students at Stanford University. Together they own about 14 percent of its shares but control 56 of the stockholder voting power through supervoting stock. They incorporated Google as a privately held company on September 4, 1998. Aninitial public offering followed on August 19, 2004. Its mission statement from the outset was "to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful, and its unofficial slogan was "Don't be evil."In 2006 Google moved to headquarters in Mountain View, California, nicknamed the Googleplex.

         Rapid growth since incorporation has triggered a chain of products, acquisitions and partnerships  beyond   Google's  core  search  engine. It  offers  onlineproductivity software including  email (Gmail), a cloud storage service (Google Drive), an office suite (Google Docs) and a social networking service (Google+).Desktop products include applications for web browsing, organizing and editing photos, and instant messaging. The company leads the development of theAndroid mobile operating system and the browser-only Chrome OS for a netbook known as a Chromebook. Google has moved increasingly into communications hardware: it partners with major electronics manufacturers in production of its high-end Nexus devices and acquired Motorola Mobility in May 2012. In 2012, a fiber-optic infrastructure was installed in Kansas City to facilitate a Google Fiber broadband service.

        The corporation has been estimated to run more than one million servers in data centers around the world (as of 2007)and to process over one billion search requests and about 24 petabytes of user-generated data each day (as of 2009). In December 2013 Alexa listed google.com as the most visited website in the world. Numerous Google sites in other languages figure in the top one hundred, as do several other Google-owned sites such as YouTube and Blogger. Its market dominance has led to prominent media coverage, including criticism of the company over issues such as copyright,censorship, and privacy.

       "Google" name "Google" came from the word "googol", which refers to the amount of math that means the number 1 followed by 0, one hundred, or 10,100, to reflect the company's goal to handle vast amounts of data. The current one says that the name Google comes from errors in the domain name of the founder.

        On 10 July 2548, Google won in court. Other companies named in the lawsuit are close googkle.com ghoogle.com and gooigle.com to call others to their site. Cause damage to the reputation of Google.

Google X

Google X

10 projects on the future of Google

      As you know, Google - is not only a search engine: The company is a world leader in the creation of gadgets, internet services, and more. The most curious development team is engaged in a secret Google X, and among their projects -  here are 10 ideas that the Internet giant seeks to bring to life

1. Car without a driver will make road traffic safer
     Experts of Google X for several years working on the project Driverless Car Program.

Negotiations are underway with the authorities for permission to test the self-governing

vehicles on public roads - as long as this agreement only states of California and Nevada. 

      A fleet of ten vehicles with test systems allow run over more than 480 thousand km (as of August of 2012), and of course, tests are continuing. However, it is unclear when such a system will be commercially available.

 2.Google Glasss will change the way you think about gadgets
    Having put on those glasses, you can forget about the screens of smartphones and computers - the right information will always be available in only one eye movements. 

       One way to look up - and before you calendar, email, social networks, weather, in general, everything that you want.

       Google Glass makes a revolutionary technology available to a wide range of people so far only a few lucky people, mostly developers and journalists were able to get a working prototype of points, but the consumers opportunity arises next year.

3. "Smart house"  according to Google

       The technology, called Android @ Home, will fully automate all of the life support system by connecting to the Internet, for example, while you are not home, a refrigerator will be able to order the necessary products itself, and coffee maker to make coffee exactly to your arrival.

        Android @ Home will connect all electrical appliances.

4. Space elevator

       According to published in the journal «Time» information Google X team in 2011, the year included the idea of ​​a "space elevator" in the so-called list of "What if ...". I must say, the very concept of this method of delivery to the orbit of people and goods put forward by K. Tsiolkovsky in 1895, the year.

       Do not wait for Google's early implementation of this idea - the development of "lift into orbit," presents many technical challenges, and all the more likely to say that to implement this idea in life is impossible.However, it's probably Google thus "cover their tracks" to save the process of developing a secret.

5.  Watch a smartphone based on Android

         Recently, it was reported that Google is preparing a direct competitor iWatch from Apple - a watch, combined with the smartphone: of course, watches SmartWatch smartphone from Google will use the operating system Android.

         This latest «must have»-new to the gadget lovers will be available early next year. 

6.  Google will take care of your health
      The Internet giant has a stake in the company Adimab, engaged in the development of diagnostics and treatment of various diseases, which would bring a variety of technologies and methods to combat diseases. The revolutionary idea is the invention of miniature sensors involved in the search and optimization of antibodies produced by the body - to start treatment only need to swallow such a sensor.
      Another development in the field of Google Health is a subsidiary of iPierian, creating the technology of "cellular reprogramming» (cellular reprogramming), which will fight the disease by modifying cells.

7. Internet airships cover the entire planet wireless

        Google's ambitions as a  provider of  Internet reached all-time highs - the company  is 

developing airships that will provide wireless connectivity the entire planet, including remote

regions in Africa and other parts of the Earth.

        If  the   project  is  realized,  the "world wide web" will  get  about  another  1  billion 

people - mostly residents of the "third world."

8. Game console based on Android
        The  popularity  of  the Android  platform  is  growing all over the world, and Google is 
seeking to use its potential to the maximum. 

       «Wall Street Journal»  spoke about the  development of the gaming console from Google, 

which is designed to be a "killer" similar technology "Yabloko» - Apple TV: game console

from  Google allows you to run any Android-games directly on your home television.

9. The way Google determines the development of smart phones Motorola
            Buy Google of Motorola Mobility (transaction was $12.5 billion) to become the owner 
of the first allowed 24.5 thousand patents and designs.
            Under the  wing of the Internet giant will release a smartphone Motorola Moto X based
on  Android, which  has  all the  modern  features and  characteristics, as  well  as, of course, a 
number of trendy "chips", which has no rivals - release date already quite close.

10. Eco-friendly sources of energy

        The company Makani Power - developer of advanced technologies in the use of wind and

solar energy: Google previously invested in the company a lot of money, and recently acquired

in its entirety and included in the project, which deals with Google X.
       The best-known  development  Makani  Power - wind turbines, hovering at  an  altitude of 

almost 300 m to 650 m-minute and allow to generate electricity out of thin air.
