…BackRub, an early search engine from the 1990s, is considered the precursor to today’s Google search engine? It was a brainchild of Google founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin, developed and operated by them in their early days. The project began in 1996 as part of Larry Page’s research at Stanford University, aiming to create a universal digital library.
