beginning of google and less than a decade later facebook they would make a new promise to humanity what i think so interesting about google and facebook is they were founded at american universities at stanford university you had 2 students larry page and sergey brin decide they wanted to create the ultimate search engine for the internet across the country you had in the case of facebook mark zuckerberg who was a student at harvard decided he wanted to create a social media platform basically to meet girls and to make friends and hence we got facebook you never think that you could build this company or anything like that right because i didn't just. write an average building stuff because we thought it was cool it was all about promise it was all about the shiny future it was all about the free flow of information but there was also a certain idealism behind it i think that a company like google we have the potential to make very big differences a very big positive difference in the world and i think we also have an obligation as a consequence of facebook and google started with
