Google Commemoration Day

On September 7th we commemorate the Google Search Engine. Sometime in January of 1996, Stanford University Ph.D. students Sergey Brin and Larry Page began a research project. This project involved creating a search engine called BackRub, this project would turn out to be the origin of what we now know as Google. Later, they chose the name Google (a misspelling of “googol”) because it represents the number 1 followed by 100 zeros. They registered the domain name Google.com in 1997.

Here is more of the Google Was a Guy series. This is the Quarantine Edition.

Welcome to the Average Joe Weekly blog. This is basically my place on the web where I can help spread some of the knowledge that I have accumulated over the years. I served 10+ years in the Marine Corps on Active Duty, but that was some 25 years ago.
