It was not long ago Google was first introduced to the public but it grew so fast that its brand power nowadays outrun Coca-Cola as well as hundreds of other house hold names and was selected as the top global brand in year 2007: http://news.com.com/2100-1014_3-6178310.html.

In old times, i would ask:”did you search on Google?”; nowadays, i would just say “did you google?”. Apparently in these days, Google = search = Google, domination. A school project turned out to be a multi-billion business, amazing? With all the new products and inventions in their Google Labs, who knows what’s next for them?

In the future, perhaps you’ll ask:”do you google?”, instead of asking “do you surf net?”. i wont be surprise.

By the way, the other top brands selected (in respective order) was General Electric, Microsoft, Coca-Cola, China Mobile, Marlboro, Wal-Mart, Citigroup, IBM, and Toyota Motor.
