in
1995
when
they
were
in
their
twenties
and
graduate
students
in
computer
science
at
Stanford
University
in
California
.
They
realized
that
Internet
search
was
a
very
important
field
and
began
working
together
to
make
searching
easier
.
Both
Page
and
Brin
left
their
studies
at
Stanford
to
work
on
their
project
.
Interestingly

they

When

,
it
did
10

How
is
Google
different
from

search
engines
?
Have
you
ever

how

Brin
and
Page
wanted
a
clean
home
page
.
They
believed
that
people
come
to
the
Internet
to
search
for
specific
information
,
not
to
be
hit
with
a
lot
of
unwanted
data
.
The
success
of
Google
over
its
rivals
has
proved
that
this
is
true
.
Over

years
,
Google
has

Google
Images
,
where
you
can
type
