Amazing Video Of Google All-Hands Meeting Circa 1999: There's Silly String Everywhere
What an amazing blast to the past.Google is a massive company today " burdened by corporate politics, layers of management, and countless legal battles " and it's sometimes easy to forget its more humble beginnings just over a decade ago, when it wasn't all that different from the startups we write about every day on TechCrunch.But in the video above we get to jump back to December 1999 to witness a Google all-hands meeting led by Larry Page and Sergey Brin, when the startup had fewer than 60 employees. After some new employee introductions the meeting shifts to a birthdaycelebration" there's silly string, singing, and an overwhelming sense that everyone there is just happy (or will be as soon as they get their cake).Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/hE5hs7CxXtU/
