This TED talks features Sergey Brin and Larry Page talking about the international reach of google and also the large load it has to maintain in as little as a minute. They also talk about expanding with a social network idea, Google foundation project, AdSense. There is also a bit about artificial intelligence search engines. This was a talk done in 2004, but gives a good inside look of the big idea train of thought which has lead to the success of Google.
They talk some about having fun in the office, and going against the business norms like changing their logo on a regular basis. Most business people would say is unsuccessful for the brand, but for Google its their identity to a tea.

This was one of the less interesting TED videos I've seen (maybe I've just been spoiled with the really amazing ones that are sifted through and glorified with the help of the masses through social media). It was less communication of ideas and more an advertisement for Google.
Sergey and Larry are always interesting to see and read about, though. They're a little awkward, but a little brilliant.
I just love how Google has all these cool ideas in mind and hope to see a lot more come out for the public.
