The main purpose of Google Search is to hunt for text in publicly accessible documents offered by web servers, as opposed to other data, such as images or data contained in databases. It was originally developed by Larry Page and Sergey Brin in 1997.
You must recognise how Google transform from a simple search engine become a search engine that has a lot of feature such as Google Maps, Google Docs, Google Adwords & Adsense, Blog (Blogger), Video (Youtube), etc. But even have a lot of amazing features, Google always keeps their simplicity for their search engine. Let’s see how the Google site interfaces change from time to time.
Google has turned from “pure” search engine, where the mission was to deliver the most relevant information and then quickly send you on your way, into more of a Web portal—an integrated collection of online services.

Competitors of Google include Baidu and Soso.com in China; Naver.com and Daum.net in South Korea; Yandex in Russia; Seznam.cz in the Czech Republic; Yahoo in Japan,Taiwan and the US, as well as Bing and DuckDuckGo Some smaller search engines offer facilities not available with Google, e.g. not storing any private or tracking information; one such search engine is Ixquick.
