Company Overview
The name

Founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin named the search engine they built "Google," a
play on the word "googol," the mathematical term for a 1 followed by 100 zeros. The
name reflects the immense volume of information that exists, and the scope of Google's
mission: to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful.

Search
When you visit www.google.com or one of more than 150 other Google domains, you
can find information in many different languages (and translate between them), check
stock quotes and sports scores, find news headlines and look up the address of your local
post office or grocery store. You can also find images, videos, maps, patents and much
more. With universal search technology, you can often find all of these things combined in
one query.

Company Overview
Apps
We build web applications, or "apps", to make it simpler for people to share information and get things
done together. Gmail, Google Calendar and Google Docs help people communicate and collaborate
more easily, whether planning a wedding or building a business itinerary. The information is stored
securely online, accessible from any device with a web connection. And because it lives online, it's easy
to share with a group of collaborators. Everyone in the group can work on the same material at the same
time, even if they're working in different buildings, countries or continents.

Today people want the same ease of use on their work computers that they have on their increasingly
powerful personal computers. This is why we offer businesses a suite called Google Apps. It's powerful
enough for large enterprises (we use it across all of Google, in fact) but simple enough for mom-and-pop
businesses too. We're continually improving Google Apps, so you always have the latest version without
worrying about maintenance or upgrades. And it's much less expensive than most traditional software.
Google Apps is designed to fit the way people naturally live, work and socialize, so they can focus on
what they're doing rather than worrying about maintaining the software.
We built Google Apps from the ground up for today's connected world. Our infrastructure is designed to
keep our users' data safe and secure and to make our apps fast and responsive. We firmly believe that
on the web, your data belongs to you, and should be portable: when you use Google Apps, you can
export your mail, documents, photos or calendar entries whenever you like.

paid Google storage for $50. The Eye-Fi card offer lets you wirelessly upload
photos and videos to Picasa Web Albums or to your computer, right from your
camera, no cables required!
Collaborative albums in Picasa
You've been able to collaboratively manage online albums in Picasa Web Albums together with friends and
family since August, and on Tuesday we released an update so you can upload to collaborative albums directly
from the Picasa software. From Picasa, you can also now manage the collaboration settings for your online
photo collections
Ten times more albums.
Those of you who have close to 1000 web albums on Picasa Web Albums will be
happy to learn that you can now store up to 10 thousand web albums on the site.
Since each web album can hold 1000 photos, this means you can potentially post 10
million photos on Picasa Web Albums!
Edit photos with Picnik.
Apply Picnik magic to your photo by selecting Edit in Picnik or from the new Picnik
icon above your photo. Picnik allows you to edit photos easily, share them and save
them back to Picasa Web Albums, right in your browser.
Share your Unlisted Gallery.
Forget sharing unlisted albums one by one! Use the unlisted gallery URLto share with
family and friends. You can always reset the authorization key in the Settings page if
you'd like to change who can view your unlisted albums.
Post to Buzz, Blogger and Twitter.
Share your Picasa Web Albums photos with friends in more places! Just click the
Buzz, Blogger, and Twitter icons to the right of your photo to post links in those
networks.
Upload to Collaborative albums.
Every album in Picasa Web Albums is now potentially collaborative. Make an album
collaborative by adding contributors in Picasa (version 3.6 and beyond) or Picasa
Web Albums. Your friends and family can then add their photos directly to your album.
Picasa Web Albums metrics: View counts & 'Like'.
We're excited to introduce two ways to gauge the reach and quality of your photos.
'Views' allow you to see how many people have seen your photo. 'Like' lets you give
other people feedback on their photos when you can't think of anything clever to leave
as a comment. Both are available below each individual photo and are visible to
anyone that can see the photo. Learn more about Views and I like this.
Upload larger videos to Picasa Web Albums and play them back at higher
quality.
We raised the video upload limit from Picasa to Picasa Web Albums to one GB for
both PC and Mac users. Plus, videos larger than 320 pixels will now play back in
higher-quality MPEG4 format.
