How do you say "Google" In Spanish?


Google's empire is planning an expansion in Latin America.

Director of Business Development John Farrell said he wants to open bigger offices in Mexico City, where he is based, and continue the "triple digit growth" in the region.

Google already bought Brazil's Akwan Infomation Technologies in 205, which became the company's research center in Latin America. They also opened departments in Sao Paulo, Mexico City and Buenos Aires. Google employs 1,000 people in Chile and Colombia.

Asked how Latin American users are different, he said Mexico and Brazil are the biggest consumers of YouTube in the world.
