Google's original name

In 1996, Page and Brin worked together on a spearheading “web crawler” idea inquisitively called BackRub. Some estimate that the early web index's terminology was a gesture to recovering backlinks. 2)

Google’s first office was a rented garage

In September 1998, the organization's first workspace was Susan Wojcicki's garage on Santa Margarita Ave. in Menlo Park, California. Wojcicki, sister of 23andMe originator Anne Wojcicki, is Google worker number 16. She was Google's first advertising chief and is currently the CEO of YouTube.3)
