| Back in 2001, the famous open source encyclopedia Wikipedia was just a
| website that provided access to a considerable amount of information...

| It's not quite clear how many employees are working at the Googleplex but the
| number is somehow close to 12.000. According to the new Wikipedia, Google
| recorded no less than 10.604 billion in 2006 while 3.077 billion represents
| only the net income. It's obvious that Google is one of the Internet giants
| and the main thing that helped Larry and Sergey become popular is surely the
| search technology that revolutionized the Internet world.
