1.	What did we do before Google? In the early days of the Internet, search engines weren’t very good and it wasn’t easy for people to find the information they wanted. Then in 1998, Larry Page and Sergey Brin launched the Google search engine. Suddenly it was easy to find the right website in seconds.
2.	So how did it all begin? Page and Brin met in 1995 when they started studying computer science at Stanford University in California. They didn’t like each other at first, but they became friends when they shared a room together at university.
3.	While Page and Brin were at Stanford, they got a lot of cheap computers and started to build a new search engine in their room. At first they called it “BackRub”, but they weren’t happy with the name so they changed it to Google. They didn’t finish their course and left Stanford in 1997.
4.	Page and Brin wanted to start a business together, but they didn’t have any money. At first their families and friends helped them. Then in August 1998 a businessman wrote a cheque to “Google Inc.” for $100,000. But Page and Brin didn’t get the money for a month because they didn't have a bank account. Six years later they were billionaires!
