    Larry Page and Sergey Brin started Google, they started it in 1996 when it was called BackRub which later became known as Google.
    The companies that are major competitors to Google include Apple, Microsoft, and Amazon.
    The CEO of Google is Eric Schmidt and/or Larry Page.
    The jobs at Google are things like, programmers, engineers, writers, advertisers, writers, and many more.
    I think Google has such a large customer following because it has so much information you can find almost anything. Also almost everyone uses it so most people follow trends and use it themselves, plus Google is obviously very rich so it is most likely that their products are high quality, new, and efficient.

    Larry Page and Sergey Brin created Google in January 1996. The toughest competitors of Google are Apple, Microsoft, and Amazon.
    The CEO of Google is Larry Page and Eric Schmidt.
    The types of jobs at Google are administrative, business operations, software engineering and operations, marketing and communications, sales and customer support, user experience, and legal and public policy.
    I think Google has such a large customer following because almost everyone uses it and Google makes it easy for people to find the things they need. They have many applications to make it more fun and even easier, and everything they do is usually accurate. Google makes your searches fast so people won’t have a negative experience.

    Sergey Brin and Larry Page invented Google, in January 1996 Some of goggles top competitors are apple Microsoft and Amazon Google Inc. today announced that Dr. Eric E. Schmidt, some jobs at Google are engineering positions at our lunar hosting and research center, I think Google has such a large customer following, because they are easy to use and if you are trying to find a web site you don’t have to spell it all right and don’t have to know the url Google will correct your spelling and they will try and find the site you are trying to find. And then you can go to that site strait from Google and have their url.

    Larry Page and Sergey Brin met at Stanford University in 1995. They are the inventers of Google. Microsoft is the main competitor of Google, as well as Amazon brand and Apple (via mobile phone internet). Larry Page is the CEO of Google, and the former CEO is Eric Schmidt. Google’s current major job offerings are for its Copernicus Center. Google has such a large customer base because it’s not only convenient and easy, but it’s reliable. Google also provides basic services such as email and Google Calendar. Google has modern day conveniences, and continues to make things easier for their customers.

    Google was founded in 1995 by two people named Larry Page and Sergey Brin. Google’s top 3 competitors are AOL, MSN, and Yahoo!. Google’s CEO as of 2011 is Erich Schmidt. Google has a large variety of jobs. You can be anything from an IT or programming manager to a cook, janitor, or even a masseuse. There is a reason Google is the most used site in the world. It is secure, user friendly, can be set to meet your needs, available to anyone, fast, and powerful.

    Google was started as a research project by Larry Page and Sergey Brin in March 1997. Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Facebook, Twitter, Mozilla, and Yahoo are some of the largest competitors for Google. Larry Page is said to be the CEO of Google today. Marketers, scientists, critical thinkers, engineers, salespeople, or even HR specialists are all types of jobs you could have while working for Google. I think Google has such a large customer following because it’s easy to use and as soon as you type in your request, Google shoots back a huge number of top sites in a matter of seconds. Google can be personalized to help your special searches. It adapts to your spelling and your searches. It’s just a convenient and easy way to search any of the information in the world.

    Google was started by Larry Page and Sergey Brin…Google was originally known as “BackRub,” however, after some brainstorming they pair decide they needed to rename it…to its present day vernacular known as “Google.” This e-company was founded in 1998 and is taking the world by storm.
    Google has many competitors, however, its main competitors are Yahoo, and Microsoft, and miraculously Google has managed to maintain 60% of the market.
    Google employs more than 20,000 people, and the company’s current C.E.O. is Larry Page.
    A myriad of employment opportunities are available at Google, some of which include: software engineering positions, product managers, advertisement quality rater, software testers, patent counselors, information security engineers, interaction designers, and more!
    I believe Google has such a large customer base because they provide relative search results based on your query in a timely manner; they also allow users to experience countless styles of Web 2.0 technology (i.e. Picnik, Latitude, etc.), all while retaining a smooth and inviting user interface.

    Larry Page and Sergey Brin created Google, and it was created in 1998. Some of the main competitors with Google are Yahoo, Bing, and many other search engines. Larry page is the CEO of Google today, and the jobs available at Google are Programming jobs and software engineer jobs. A lot of the available jobs there are non-engineering jobs. I think Google has such a large customer following because a lot of people need to search information at some time or another, and a lot of people believe they can rely on the answers of Google because the answers there are actually proved and written down by actual people, who would know the answers.
