With time I'm beginning to think Sergey and Larry got incredibly lucky with respect to finding each other for the project that would eventually take off. Sergey always comes off as the enthused tech head, whereas Larry goes for big picture stuff, (a little like a variation on Woz and Jobs) but it seems like since that initial convergence they've been diverging more and more.

I love the way it says "Currently I am at Google".

On one hand, they undeniably got lucky finding each other.

On the other hand, they were both researchers in the same field, at one of the best CS universities of the world.

Poisson's law is that luck favors those who choose to sit in the busiest bus station.
