Video: the Google story in two minutes

This video was just released by Google.  It only had 304 views when this article was written.  It is a summary history of Google since it became a company. 

Google has been the dominant search engine almost at its inception, and has been an amazing company with many internet-based applications too many to easily list. 

So, take a minute (well, two), sit back and enjoy this video.  Many things in the video will bring back memories.
