Google didn't invent search engine, they just improve on it. In fact, most of the stuff they do are not new. Like Toolbar, someone else did that before. Desktop Search, someone did that before also. AJAX, someone did that back in 1998. So are many other stuff they do.
There is one thing, that they did that is new and I truely admire: their homepage, I started using Google since 2000 and their homepage hasn't changed at all.
