If you’d like to see, or remind yourself of what Google’s search engine was like back in 1998 when it started, here’s a fun, instant way to do just that:
Type ‘Google in 1998’ into Google’s search bar.
Google will immediately adopt the old look, complete with the logo + exclamation mark.
To change it back, click on the “Take me back to the present,” or conduct a search using the old search box at the top.
“What impresses us most is their ability to convey the issue whilst avoiding the technical jargon that those outside of IT really don’t understand.”
