The main purpose of Google Search is to hunt for text in publicly accessible documents offered by web servers, as opposed to other data, such as images or data contained in databases. It was originally developed by Larry Page and Sergey Brin in 1997.[3] In June 2011 Google introduced "Google Voice Search" to search for spoken, rather than typed, words.[7] In May 2012 Google introduced a Knowledge Graph semantic search feature in the U.S.
