Google 15 Years Doodle..

GOOGLE celebrated its 15th birthday with a trip down memory' lane, and an update to the search engine formula which helped spawn the tech giant. The company took journalists on a tour of where it all started -- Susan Wojcicki's garage in Menlo Park. California. where Larry Page and Sergey Brin began working on Google in 1998. Wojcicki is currently a Google Vice President.

A Google* page meanwhile included a photo album of the original home search page, and collected dozens of birthday wishes.

But Google, which has grown into one of the world's biggest companies, was not content to jusi look at the past. It announced an upgrade to its main search engine, with new ways to integrate its use across different devices. Since 1998. the tech world has changed dramatically and Google said its search engine has been constantly improved.

"The world has changed so much since then: billions of people have come online, the web has grown exponentially, and now you can ask any question on the powerful little device in your pocket." said Google Search Chief Amit Singhal in a blog post.
