Google's Early Days Search (2001)

martieg · 10-09-2008, 01:15 AM

I just saw that Google has made available their search database of 2001 (I think to conmemorate their 10 year anniversary).

This is the link:

It's funny, you google the following today and you get thousand of links, but back in 2001 they didn't exist:

> Apple iPod
> Buggatti Veyron
> YouTube

On BMW:

> BMW 335i - search resulted in an E36 with an M5 engine
> BMW 135i - no results, of course
> M3 - today the first results page shows 7 of 9 BMW references; back in 2001 just one (the last one)

And these were top notch (who remembers these now?):

> Enron
> Oldsmobile

Can you add to these lists?

Try these:

9/11

Paris Hilton (Not what you expect!)

Good ones!

Oh, 9/11 - who had an idea before it happened? Related to that I searched:

> Ground Zero
> Mohamed Atta
> Flight 93

martieg · 10-09-2008, 01:39 AM

Try these too:

> Katrina
> Ike

On celebrities:

> Colbert (no clue)
> Britney Spears (no bald heads back then!)
> Schwarzennegger (no governator yet)

iPod brings up a bunch of jibberish, haha

bigslickak · 10-09-2008, 12:58 PM

It's very eerie

I tried stuff like:

LeBron James - sophomore in HS at the time
Sidney Crosby - nothing mentioning the future NHL star
Al Qaeda - Looks like the media spelled Bin Laden's first name as Usama back then

Anybody notice how quickly the pages load compared to google today.

Blake · 10-09-2008, 02:56 PM

here's one: search "sub prime mortgage" and look at the third result...article about "risky business" and now look where we are.

Voltigeur · 10-09-2008, 03:13 PM

Try

"stock market crash"

and see which one you get

I miss the old Google - so much cleaner....
