The Mountain View

The Mountain View, Calif., firm is looking to bolster staff in its mobile, advertising and cloud computing areas, said Alan Eustace, senior vice president of engineering and innovation, in a blog post last week.

Eustace noted that Google's Android mobile operating system runs on more than 100 devices and added that more than 300,000 Android devices are activated daily.

Chrome, Google's Web browser, has about 120 million active users and last year more than 1 million businesses started using Google Apps, he said.
