Think About The History Of Google & Your Advertising Agency

Google launched in 1997. From Wikipedia:

Google.com registered as a domain on September 15. The name—a play on the word “googol,” a mathematical term for the number represented by the numeral 1 followed by 100 zeros—reflects Larry and Sergey’s mission to organize a seemingly infinite amount of information on the web.

Google has become such a big part of our online and offline life that I’ve forgotten all that they have accomplished over the past 18 years. A reason to dig the Google history video. When Google launched, I was in my second year as an Internet publisher. I had fled advertising because I did not think that it had the juice of what I saw happening in the digital world. Today, the advertising industry is deep into this world. Is your agency juicing it up? Or, are you just riding along?

Watch the Google History video below. Then think about your business.
