Baidu was founded in 2000. Google in 1998.

However, Robin Li (founder of Baidu) seems to have begun his research on search engines earlier than Google founders. Therefore in some sense Baidu is older than Google, but that's not the most obvious sense :)

This does show that Baidu is not a C2C (Copy to China) product though. I'm happy to learn that.
