It might be hard to imagine now, but Google wasn't always the tech-industry powerhouse that it is today. In fact, back in 2000, the company was incredibly small scale comparatively. At the turn of the millennium, Google performed less than ten billion searches annually, compared to the over 1.2 trillion that it executed in 2012.
