Google celebrates Its 17th Birthday on Sunday.....

                       There is a doodle on the Google home page that celebrates the company's 17th birthday. But the interesting fact is that September 27 isn't the search giant's birthday.The selection of September 27 as Google's birthday seems to be a one of convenience than the actual date when the company was founded.

Google celebrated September 7 (the day when the company was incorporated) as its birthday till 2005. In 2005 Google changed the date to September 27 to make it coincide with the announcement of the record number of pages that the search engine was indexing.

                              Tomorrow marks 17 years since Brin and Page founded the company. In that time it has gone from one of a clutch of search engines to a cultural force, to a corporation that cannot be erased from history.You can stick a pin in history and define human existence before and after Google. It has changed the way we think, the way we learn, the way we shop and the way we think about business. Its influence is hard to truly quantify.
