When you are looking at homes in Virginia you will (if you know about our area) also look at Charlottesville Real Estate. There are several ways to find real estate in our area and Google is a place that many people start.

A little personal history about Google. I was born in the Silicon Valley and had an engineering business for over 20 years. One of my clients was located in an area that had a lot of companies (start-ups) near it. I remember seeing the first sign that said “Google” and I most likely just rolled my eyes and thought it was just another dot.com

Charles to Google: Sorry I missed you....

Well I should have know better as Google has grown… Fast forward and here I am selling Charlottesville Real Estate and Google is the main marketing source on the internet.

Funny how things go full circle…

Charles, awesome insight and haven't we all been there and judged something we were totally wrong about? Thanks for reminding me to be more open in my thinking.

Well too bad more of us didn't buy their stock in those early days that Google was building their business.

My hubby got on early w/Cisco, EMC, and others.  Thank goodness!  Google, Amazon - I knew better.  Just missed the window of opportunity.

Hi Charles...I bought Google, Amazon, Intel, Applied Materials, etc. years ago.  My son, the stock broker, thought I over did it with the dot coms and I probably did but I've weathered their bust and am still way ahead and very happy.

Giving a presentation with out Google would seem so strange today. If you would have told me few years ago I would be online during a presentation I think I might have rolled my eyes and thought you were a bit strange.

Google throws great parties, too!  Last January during the Inman Connect, the did a wonderful bash!

I think many of us have missed some companies that suddenly are everywhere.  Great insight.
