While announcing company's Q2 earnings, Larry Page said Google had a great quarter with revenue up by 32 percent year on year and a new record for quarterly revenue at over $9 billion!

The CEO of the California-based company also revealed growth rate of the recently announced social networking site Google+, which is still in field trial stage. Indirectly, aiming Facebook's complex controls for sharing content with different groups, Page said, "In real life, we share different things with different people."

Larry Page, who was appointed as CEO three months ago, said over 10 million people have joined Google+ and users are sharing over 1 billion items in a single day. He also added that Google is planning to add more fun to Google+ and the company is excited about its progress.

Page also added that over 550,000 Android Devices activated daily and its popular web browser Google Chrome has more than 160 million users around the globe.

Web giant's CEO broke Google products into three categories:-

  • Search and ads products - the core driver of revenue for the company
