Yesterday, Google wished AdWords a happy 15th birthday. You know, their real birthday is October 23rd, they launched on October 23, 2000 - so they are a bit late.

But the truth is, it has changed Google. The company went from an awesome search service, to an awesome search service with crazy money because of AdWords. In fact, it has so much money, it does wild things like self driving cars, internet balloons, and so forth.

Did you know Google launched with only 350 advertisers and now they have over one million advertisers?

Google has a fun infographic over here to share some fun stats on it's 15th birthday celebration:
