Google in 2001

Google has made available for a limited time period and in honor of their 10th birthday (until mid November) their oldest search index, back from 2001. Pretty nice walk in the past, I even found some relevant results for my online activity, 7 years ago: positions #1 and #2 are mine, while position #3 is my fathers’.

I invite you to do the same “vanity search” in 2001 Google and see if you left any traces online from back then

Later update: Searching the names of todays’ Romanian online industry VIPs, I found some interesting results:

• Orlando Nicoara – March 22nd 1999, doing some business as the Internet Marketing Director of NewsSurfer
• Calin Fusu and Vlad Stan giving some testimonials: Calin, as admin of RoGenerator and Vlad as GM of allonline.ro
• Cristian Manafu as web editor in DMOZ for the World > Românã > Afaceri > Publicitate category
• and probably not Zoso, but someone having the same real name as him, who at age 19 committed some felony
