Snippet from the article:
<<One of the key facts that people often forget about Google is that AdWords was a lucky break. No one had any idea how enormously successful it would be. The only thing the company's managers knew at the time they set out to create it in late 1999 was that Google desperately needed some way of monetizing search results so it wouldn't have to sign up with banner-ad company DoubleClick.>>
