Happy Birthday

Celebrating a birthday is special. It’s a day that only comes around once a year, and for this reason it should be a memorable one. It’s a unique day, just for you! The exciting thing is that we can decide how amazing a birthday turns out to be – a good amount of love and effort will result in a happy, successful day. We grow older and wiser as time goes by, giving us the tools and experience to become the person we dream to be. A birthday signifies a fresh start – a bright and bold new chapter with new goals and different reasons to be inspired.

We enjoy this special occasion in various ways. Some people like to throw a big party in celebration of a birthday, whereas others would prefer a simple and intimate gathering with friends. The chosen route of celebration is not always that important, it’s more about the meaning, and how these ways of celebrating a birthday make a person feel. It’s all about feeling appreciated on your special day, or making the special person in your life celebrating his or her birthday, feel important, beautiful and appreciated.

Birthdays are the perfect occasion to celebrate those closest and dearest to us. We have the opportunity to make the people in our lives feel acknowledged and loved on their special day, and by this, we enjoy ourselves too.

 Joys on your birthday, hope thts bouquet, with the brightest of wishes adds more colour to your special day

Google’s 25th Birthday

Today’s Doodle celebrates Google’s 25th year. And while here at Google we’re oriented towards the future,  birthdays can also be a time to reflect. Let’s take a walk down memory lane to learn how we were born 25 years ago…

By fate or luck, doctoral students Sergey Brin and Larry Page met in Stanford University’s computer science program in the late ‘90s. They quickly learned they shared a similar vision: make the World Wide Web a more accessible place. The pair worked tirelessly from their dorm rooms to develop a prototype for a better search engine. As they made meaningful progress on the project, they moved the operation to Google’s first office — a rented garage. On September 27, 1998, Google Inc. was officially born.

Much has changed since 1998 — including our logo as seen in today’s Doodle — but the mission has remained the same: to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful. Billions of people from all over the globe use Google to search, connect, work, play, and SO much more!

Thank you for evolving with us over the past 25 years. We can’t wait to see where the future takes us, together.
