Project Glass is a new product which will be produced by Google Incorporation in the future. Google Incorporation has a history of seventeen years and it started in 1995. In 1995, Larry Page, current CEO, and Sergey Brin, Co-founder of the company, met at Stanford. They were both grad students majoring in computer science. In 1996, they collaborated and came up with a search engine, BackRub. BackRub operated in Stanford for a little bit more than a year and but forced to leave the university due to its large requirement of bandwidth. They decided to change the name "BackRub" to "Google." The word comes from the word "googol", meaning a number that has a hundred zeroes after 1, which also reflects their goal of having infinite information on the search engine. In 1998, the company was funded by Andy Bechtolsheim the co-founder of Google with a hundred thousand dollars. .
The company made Susan Wojcicki's garage, located at 232 Santa Margarita, Menlo Park their workplace. They moved from the garage to an apartment in Palo Alto in February 1999 with eight employees. In the same year, they had their first mountain view location at 2400 E. Bayshore. In November, Charlie Ayers became the first chef of Google Incorporation with approval from the forty workers at that time. The company has six executive officers: The CEO Larry Page, Exectuive Chariman Eric E. Schmidt, Co-founder Sergey Brin, Senior vice president and chief business officer Nikesh Arora, Senior vice president, corporate development and chief legal officer David C.
