Google Turns 25

The Before Times

Samantha Robbins and Carmen Hunderman

September 27, 2023

Google turns 25 today. How did people function before Google?

We spoke with our school’s staff about the “before times.”

What did videos look like in the “before times”? We don’t know. Those VHS tapes, DVDs, or film reels are in your families’ attics somewhere. Thank goodness for Youtube, amirite?
