Google Inc. is an American multinational public corporation invested in Internet search, cloud computing, and advertising technologies.

Google hosts and develops a number of Internet-based services and [5] [6][7] products, and generates profit primarily from advertising through its AdWordsprogram. The company [8][9][10] was founded by Larry Page and Sergey Brin, often dubbed the "Google Guys", while the two were attending Stanford University as PhD candidates. It was first incorporated as a privately held company on September 4, 1998, and its initial public offering followed on August 19, 2004. At that time Larry Page, Sergey Brin, and Eric Schmidt agreed to [11] work together at Google for twenty years, until the year 2024. The company's mission statement from [12] the outset was "to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful", and [13] the company's unofficial slogan coined by Google engineer Amit Patel and supported by Paul [14][15] Buchheit is "Don't be evil". In 2006, the company moved to its current headquarters in Mountain View, California. Google's rapid growth since its incorporation has triggered a chain of products, acquisitions, and partnerships beyond the company's core web search engine. The company offers online productivity software, such as its Gmail email service, and social networking tools, includingOrkut and, more recently, Google Buzz and Google+. Google's products extend to the desktop as well, with applications such as the web browser Google Chrome, the Picasa photo organization and editing software, and the Google Talk instant messaging application. Google leads the development of the Android mobile operating system, used on a number of phones such as the Motorola Droid and [16] the Samsung Galaxy smartphone series', as well as the newGoogle Chrome OS, best known as the main operating system on the Cr-48 and also, since 15 June 2011, on commercial Chromebooks such as [17] [18] the Samsung Series 5 and Acer AC700.
