Yeah, you read the title, so let’s not waste our time with any introduction, but dive straight into it......
You might’ve seen this famous meme that Google started in a garage, well that’s true, but do know that the owner of that garage is actually the current CEO of YouTube.
Google HQ runs on 100% Renewable Energy; they literally use Goats instead of Lawn-mowers there.
There is an actual rule that no employee in Google HQ should be more than 200 ft. from a cafeteria (Food for life...). And it doesn’t stop there, unfortunately, if an employee dies, his/her partner will get half of the wage for the next 10 years.
Google is actually younger than Netflix, and the term Google means 1 followed by 100 zeroes (this you might’ve already known).
You know, Gmail ignores any number of dots in your mail id. So, if you create a mail id, you also own all the dotted versions of that. This also means xyz@gmail or xy.z@gmail or x.y.z@gmail, they’re all just the same.
APPLE
Apple is this huge tech-giant, but do you know that they can’t sell iPhones as “iPhones” in Brazil. Also, the price of their products varies in different countries.
Apple is making a whooping 0.11 Million USD per minute, that’s like, by the time you finish reading this post, they would’ve added another 0.33 Mil to their revenue.
A single iPhone contains 75 out of the 118 elements, that’s almost freaking one-third of the entire periodic table.
Apple is famous for their iPhones, iPads, Macs blah blah blah, but also, they were the first to manufacture a digital color camera.
Smoking near an iPhone could possibly void your warranty, well anyways, you shouldn’t be smoking at the first place.
Steve Jobs, one of the founders of Apple, was on a fruit-only diet, and that’s why the name “Apple”. Eventually, Steve Jobs sadly died because of Pancreatic Cancer, but the Current CEO Tim Cook offered to donate a part of his liver and Steve refused.
Apple spends hours and hours of work in designing their retail boxes, to give a pleasant unboxing experience. They’ve also designed the Apple Pencil in a way that if you just roll it, it will always end up with the Apple logo facing up.
SAMSUNG
Samsung is big, like HUGEE, their employee count is more than that of Google, Apple and Nokia combined!!
Smartphones are just 20% of Samsung’s business. They started as a company that sells noodles and fishes, and after almost 30 years made their first electronic device.
Samsung runs a fully functioning hospital in South Korea, they own a theme park, and also own a professional basketball team over there (like wtf...).
Burj Khalifa, the world’s tallest building, is actually constructed by Samsung C&T (still they struggle to make a tiny powerful processor).
No companies in the world that spends as much as Samsung spends for advertising.
Just before weeks, Google acquired Android, Samsung denied to buy it.
So, that’s it guys, and if you’re into these cool tech facts, do check out the YouTube channel -> Mrwhosetheboss , it’s one of my favts.
