GUEST – Dr Alistair Mokoena – Head of Google South Africa
It's hard to believe, but Google turned 25 today. Depending on how old you are, this may either seem like a much longer time than you expected or much shorter than you thought. As someone who grew up with Google (I turned 29 this year), it's definitely hard to imagine that there ever existed a world without the internet-defining search engine. Yet here we are, only 25 years later. So, it's time for a look back at how Google became the internet behemoth it is today.
