Hot on the heels of its entry into the web browser market with
Chrome,
internet giant Google celebrates its tenth birthday today.
The firm was started by founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin in a Stanford
dorm room, and then run out of a suburban garage.
From these lowly beginnings Google has come to dominate the web search
market, expanding into enterprise search, messaging, blogging, social networking
and recently the
Android
mobile phone platform.
Traditionally eschewed by enterprise IT buyers, Google products are
increasingly seen as a viable proposition.
For example its hosted Google Apps Premier Edition now offers enterprise
grade security functionality courtesy of the acquisition of Postini last year.
Now headquartered in Mountain View, California, the firm is valued at
approximately £74bn.
