How Old IS Google? The Ultimate Founding Date Deep Dive!

Ever wondered how old that all-knowing friend in your pocket really is? We're talking about Google, of course! So, how old *is* Google? Prepare to feel a little… nostalgic. Google was officially founded on **September 4, 1998**, by Larry Page and Sergey Brin.

That means as of today (check the date!), Google is over 25 years old! From its humble beginnings as a research project at Stanford University, Google has exploded into a global tech titan. It's not just a search engine anymore; it's email (Gmail), maps (Google Maps), video (YouTube), and so much more!

So, next time you use Google (which will probably be in the next five minutes!), take a moment to appreciate its journey. From Stanford to world domination, Google's come a long way in a relatively short amount of time. Happy searching!
