DON'T BE EVIL: Ten years ago today, two Stanford grad students incorporated a company they called "Google". (It now has almost 20,000 employees.) "Their goal was to create a better search engine than AltaVista, which dominated the industry at the time, but often failed to return relevant results." (Wow. I used to use AltaVista all the time, but haven't even thought about it in years.)
Go ahead: try to count how many times you use a Google-related site or tool today. Because a Colbert Report writer tried to abstain for 24 hours, and (no spoilers!) it is not easy. Is there anything they need to improve upon? Are you already singing mama don't take my Google Chrome away?
