The genesis of Google

Computer scientist, entrepreneur and philanthropist

Constant experimentation, open-ended projects, and a playful culture have propelled Google from a Stanford experiment to a global force. Every second, thousands of search queries from nearly every country light up their real-time visual map, even from places as remote as Antarctica. Their philosophy trusts employees to spend 20 percent of their time on passion projects, sparking tools like Google News and AdSense. By combining technology, philanthropy, and a commitment to universally accessible information, they aim to make the web work better for everyone.
