Answer preview

Like most companies, the founders were colleagues, and Google Inc. traces its origins to a dorm room at Stanford University (O’Connell, 2018). Larry Page and Sergey Brin came across each other while studying computer science, and in 1996 the prosperous journey to coming up with google started (O’Connell, 2018). Their goal was to come up with a search engine that would rival those already in the market. With this idea in mind, they initially came up with Backrub. To aid with their project, the founders incorporated another technology they came up with, called PageRank (O’Connell, 2018). Their project got great reviews, an aspect that propelled them to start working on developing a search engine (O’Connell, 2018). Brin and Page had to use old and discarded computers as materials for their project with access to limited resources.
