“This,” wrote the Google Ventures general partner David Krane yesterday on Twitter. “10 years ago, today. A day I’ll never forget…”

谷歌創投(Google Ventures)普通合夥人戴維·克萊恩8月19日在Twitter上寫道:“這是10年前的今年。我永遠無法忘記的一天……”

The object in question was the photo-of-a-photo seen above, of Google executives preparing to ring the opening bell of Nasdaq in New York on August 19, 2004. As Fortune wrote yesterday, Google was a much smaller company then. It was involved in far fewer businesses, had dramatically less revenue, and employed just five percent of the people it does today.

他所說的正是上面我們看到的那張圖,那是2004年8月19日,谷歌高管團隊準備在紐約敲響納斯達克(Nasdaq)開市鍾時的合影。正如《財富》雜誌(Fortune)另一篇報道中所寫的那樣,那時的谷歌還是一家小公司,公司業務比現在小得多,更沒有如此鉅額的收入,員工人數也只有如今的百分之五。
