So began the “letter from the founders” penned by Sergey Brin and Larry Page in the company’s securities registration form in 2004.
Despite ever-increasing commercial success since that date, Brin and Page have kept to their word.
Google is an unconventional company with a huge stake in our online lives. It is a source of fascination for many, including us.
But what really happens in the Googleplex?
And what cool factoids and stats exist from the company’s relatively short past?
Here we bring you 10 amazing facts about Google to quench our own thirst for Google knowledge as well as hopefully offer you a distracting diversion from your daily life.
1. Before Google, There Was BackRub
In 1996, graduate students Larry Page and Sergey Brin worked on a research project to understand the link structure of the World Wide Web. They're particularly interested in determining the importance of a given web page based on its backlinks or how many other web pages link to it (which later became the concept behind Google's "PageRank" algorithm).
The project was named BackRub (yes, a play on the word "backlink"). You can see an archived page of BackRub in the Wayback Machine:
8) Your logo is upside down: Why is the light source obviously below the image? It looks quite unnatural...
The logo is simply a scan of my hand, from a flatbed scanner converted to black and white. The "back" in the picture is the scanner cover, and the shadows are from the scanner light.
2. The Original Google Computer Storage
Larry and Sergey needed large amount of disk space to test their PageRank algo, but the largest hard disks available at the time were only 4 GB. So they assembled 10 of these drives together.
While he was an undergrad at Michigan University, Larry had built a programmable plotter out of LEGO, so it's only natural that he used the colorful bricks to create Google's first computer storage!
3. Google's First Investor
Sun Microsystem co-founder Andy Bechtolsheim knew a good thing when he saw it. After talking to Larry and Sergey about Google for 30 minutes, he whipped out his checkbook and wrote a check for $100,000, made out to "Google, Inc." Problem was, Google, Inc. hasn't existed yet!
Oh, by the way, the Sun in Sun Microsystem stands for "Stanford University Network."
4. Google Garage
Talk about getting lucky tenants. In 1998, Susan Wojcicki rented her garage to two Stanford students - you know who they are - for $1,700 a month to help out with the mortgage. That turned out to be a life-changing decision for Susan - it got her a key early job at Google which translated to a top executive position later on, introduced a future husband to her younger sister Anne, and created a mini cottage industry for the rest of her family.
In 2006, Google bought the house which had become a tourist attraction (the busloads of people who show up to take pictures were so annoying that Google decided not to publish the address - though ironically, you can still Google Map it.)
5. Google's First Dog
Despite the Internet's obsession with cats, dogs rule Google. In 1999, a Leonberger breed named Yoshka came to work with Google's first VP of Engineering Urs Hölzle and became the company's "first" dog.
If you must know, Leonbergers are big dogs with lionesque mane that look really majestic. They are, however, useless as guard dogs because they're much too kind and gentle.
6. Just How Many Servers Does Google Have?
Good question. Nobody outside the company knows, and Google ain't talkin'. The company's famously secretive when it comes to its data centers (Heck, no one even knows for sure how many data centers the company has!)
For example, The Dalles or "Googleville" data center in a small
Washington
Oregon town, was cloaked in secrecy:
"No one says the 'G' word," said Diane Sherwood, executive director of the Port of Klickitat, Wash., directly across the river from The Dalles, who is not bound by such agreements. "It's a little bit like He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named in Harry Potter."
Recently, Google Fellow Jeff Dean gave a revealing talk on large-scale computing systems in which he discussed technical details of a new storage and computation system called Spanner, which is designed for up to 10 million servers. Skynet, anyone?
7. "Green" Search
All those hardware must use a lot of electricity (indeed, Googleville data center is calculated to require about 103 megawatts of electricity - enough to power 82,000 homes or a city the size of Tacoma, Washington), but just how much energy do you use when you perform a Google search?Google calculated that it uses about 1 kJ (0.0003 kWh) of energy to answer the average search query. It's so efficient that your PC will likely use more energy in the time it takes to do a Google search.
To offset its electricity consumption, Google even installed 1.6MW solar panels on the rooftops of the Googleplex. A total of 9,212 solar panels generate 4,475 kWh daily, the equivalent of about the amount of electricity used by 1,000 California homes.
8. Google Trike
Google Trike – Youtube Video.
"I began thinking about building a bicycle-based Street View system after realizing how many interesting places around the world - ranging from historic landmarks to beautiful trails to shopping districts - aren't accessible by car," says Dan. "When I'm riding the trike, so many people come up to me and ask where it's off to next or how they can get imagery of their favorite spot, so I can't wait to see what our users come up with."
9. I'm Feeling Lucky Costs Google $110 Million a Year
The "I'm Feeling Lucky" button on Google's homepage takes you straight to the first web page result. Because it bypasses Google's own search result page, where users are shown ads, the button actually costs Google around $110 million a year.
Why keep it? Google Vice President of Search Product and User Experience Marisa Mayer said:
You know Larry and Sergey had the view, and I certainly share it, that it's possible just to become too dry, too corporate, too much about making money. And you know what I think is really delightful about Google and about the "I'm Feeling Lucky," is that they remind you that the people here have personality and that they have interests and that there is real people.
10. Googlebot, Revealed At Last!
In 2005, Ben Rathbone (then at Google's Hardware Operations) gave us a glimpse of humanity's future. I, for one, welcome our new Googlebot overlord:
Then I pondered the question: what does Google do? The grossly simplified answer that I came up with is Google connects the world with the Internet.
It all snapped into place: the idea of a robot, connecting a world with the Internet, with wires, that connect to big cabinets of computers. It was not hard then to make the leap to representing the internet as a world, or globe, made up of pages.
If you encounter this sticky note at the top of Google, It's time for a careful review of your computer.
Google has chosen an unconventional move for getting malicious attacks to life.
In connection with the on-going security checks have Google engineers intercepted suspicious traffic in one of its data centers.
Google has been in dialogue with the companies that are senders of traffic, and the conclusion is that there is so much traffic and so unknown patterns that can only be the case that a larger group of computers that are infected with the same type of malware.
Google has been in dialogue with the companies that are senders of traffic, and the conclusion is that there is so much traffic and so unknown patterns that can only be the case that a larger group of computers that are infected with the same type of malware.
It is typically the computers of unsuspecting users who are infected, so to get their attention begins Google today to put a clear yellow warning sign at the top, when the users are on a Google page.
If Google finds that you are one of the infected users will be guided onto This page where there are recommendations for antivirus and system scans. Google also recommend all others to follow the recommendations, even if you do not meet the yellow screen today.

Everyone knows that most of the websites prompt their users to select security question, so that in case you forget your password, you can easily reset it. But when it comes to Facebook, things can become worst if you have selected your security question. Recently i was just playing with Facebook password reset process and just found that there is a easy way to Bypass Facebook’s Security Question.
Here’s how:
Go to Facebook’s Forgot password page and enter any of the details of your Friend and click search. Facebook will now search appropriate account that is associated with the information you provided.
Select you account and Click “This is My Account”. Next Facebook will present to you the available options to recover your account.
Now Click “No Longer have access to these?” and Facebook will now ask for New email addresse, so that it can send you messages about recovering your account. Enter the New email address and click Submit and as expected there is also another level of security called “Security Question”. Now here comes the Critical vulnerability.. Interestingly If you Provide wrong answers three times in a row, you will Just Bypass this level of security and Facebook will now provide another interesting way to get back your account with the help of 3 friends.
As you can see above there are Three Steps involved in the the recovery process. First you will have to select 3 Trusted Friends for the help (If you are trying to hack your friends password, then you may select yourself and 2 more friends).
Just Register your Mobile on Facebook.
Unfortunately it is not possible to update or Remove your account’s security question once you have added one. So guys If you have had already added Security Question in your Account Settings, You are at Risk. So to avoid this attack, you will need to Update your ‘Account Security‘ In Account Settings.
Do Share this Post with your Friends and Make them Aware of this vulnerability!
Note: If you haven’t set your Security Question yet, then Please do not Bother to set any Because its useless. The Most Important thing you got to do now is “Register your Mobile” on Facebook if you haven’t yet. If you have had already chosen your Security Question, then please read this post carefully to know how you can protect yourself from this attack.

Note that The Victims account will be locked for 24 hours after this password change and also the user’s old email address will receive a notification of the password change including the names of the 3 friends who were involved in this password change. Yes you guessed it right, you could also create 3 fake profiles and add them to your victims friends list first and then carry out this hacking Process.How do i Protect Myself from This Attack ?
As you can see we easily Bypassed Facebook’s Security Question, There is No use of setting any security Question. If you haven’t Selected any Security Question on Facebook, Just sit back and hang loose , don’t Bother to set any.Just Register your Mobile on Facebook.
Unfortunately it is not possible to update or Remove your account’s security question once you have added one. So guys If you have had already added Security Question in your Account Settings, You are at Risk. So to avoid this attack, you will need to Update your ‘Account Security‘ In Account Settings.
