Larry Page and Sergey Brin, two Stanford PhD students, were operating their nascent search engine out of a Menlo Park garage at the time. The way that billions of people use the internet has changed since they set out to "organize the world's information and make it universally accessible."
After 27 years, the business has developed into a major force in the world and is currently owned by Alphabet Inc. Google today offers cloud services, advertising, Android, YouTube, smart devices, and artificial intelligence in addition to its core search business. The business keeps innovating in e-commerce, machine learning, and quantum computing under CEO Sundar Pichai.
Since that initial whimsical design, doodles have also undergone significant change. These site artworks have evolved over time into intricate animations, interactive games, and homages to artists, scientists, and world landmarks.
But for this year's anniversary, Doodle decides to take a look back. By displaying the original 1998 logo, Google is honoring its history and expressing gratitude to its user base throughout the world for sharing in it.
