3. What is Google?
Google is the search engine that allows users to get information
that they are looking for (Amali, 2017).
Google is the world’s most popular search engine. It began as a
search project in 1996 by Larry Page and Sergey Brin, who were
two Ph.D. students at Stanford University.
The Google’s mission is to “organize the world’s information and
make it universally accessible and useful.”
