A man, Hubert Chang has claimed that he is the third co-founter of search giant Google. He has released a web video published on Vimeo, in which he has claimed that beside Larry Page and Sergey Brin he is the third co-founder of Google.

In the video, Chang has claimed that he helped Google co-founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page design the search giant in February 1997.

"The design includes the search engine algorithm, the business model (also called AdSense and AdWords), the name of the company, the outline of the system architecture, a corporation culture like a grad school, and Google's growing path," Sydney Morning Herald quoted Chang, as saying.

Google has already released a statement claiming that Chang's claims are completely baseless, but it did not deny that Page and Brin had met him.

Chang claims that he abandoned Google 11 years back because of his father's desire for him to complete his PhD at New York University.
