The search engine we all know and love has turned 10 years old today.

It’s odd to think that they’ve been around for only ten years to be honest – Google is intertwined with our online lives everywhere now. I personally use GMail, of course, Reader, Notebook, Analytics, Sitemaps, Video and Youtube, Maps and Earth, Chat – not to mention their search. In fact I can’t think of anything more convenient than everything under one Google account. How they make money I don’t think I’ll ever understand, but I guess if the advertisers want to pay the sort of money they do, who am I to argue – especially if I’m the one to benefit! Then there’s the browser & mobile OS markets with Chrome & Android respectively. The last ten years have been good for Google, and the future is looking very bright too. Happy Birthday Google!
