lol what the hell if u dont no what google means it is a site engine which will find anything and everythging that u will type in it will find videos images etc cars motorbikes when i say everything i mea everything
It's a good question. I have no idea why it's called google. Do google have a special meaning in english? (english is not my first language so I wonder if google means something in english...)
The word Googol describes a number which is followed by one hundred zeros. Google is just a bit of corporate twisting onto that word. A Googolplex is a number which is followed by a googol of zeros.
Google's HQ is named the Googleplex, so it is implied that they named it after the number.
Oh, thanks a lote. Now it's clear why they choose that name for a search engine. I thought that it was just because it's nice to say google.

@haslip I belive it is spelled googol *checks wikipedia* Yep googol!
Also, I heard the original name for google was backrub back when the two founders were in college together, but they changed it to google because people didn't get the joke
Edit: @tetraca nevermind looks like you already said that. When I read your post the first time i thought spelled it google! Damn this dyslexia!
Google is in fact mathematical term and represent number that is one follow iwth hundred zeros and several times creators of google have confirmed that it was their initial idea to name the company like this.
Google is a fun word to say! Google Google Google Google Google! Googlistic powers are so overwhelmingly insane! Google is NOT the same as googol, but however it IS renamed after googol. I think they renamed it because they were afraid that it would be mistyped.
Maybe it's because when they were developing it, they implemented early that phrase that says more or less "320.024 results found". So they think there must appear really high numbers, with lots of zeros and they thought that something derived from googol (which sounds cool also) could fit the name of a search engine called to be the most popular worldwide.
Yeah googleplex, I thought everyone knew that? It has like a million 0 after the 1 or something. Not even the worlds population of money equals a googleplex.
You should search googleplex on google, see what you find .
I opened my computer this morning very excited about checking my email but to no avail because till
now I am having a hard time connecting to gmail and google. I already tried a few things like 1.
reset my modem 2. virus and malware scan my computers but as I found out it's not only a
problem in my pc. It's a problem in all of the pcs here at home as well. We're all connected
to the internet via a wireless hub (linksys). Well recently I found out that the firmware of our
hub is corrupted (meaning people could connect to our network and use our interne....
Hi, I tried to install Google Chrome web browser on my Windows XP computer and faced the following
error each time: "Access to this application is restricted." Well! I do not exactly know where
this comes from but I guess that it is one of Google's racist issues. As I tried from my home
country Iran, some Google services like Google Code are not available due to bans that the company
has put on particular advanced services. Because the installer first comes from the sub-domain
code.google.com I think that the same cause also applies here. The question is if....
Well it seems Google is going ahead with service even though the huge security risks that are
involved in this program. Of course, they are well aware of the problems that come with this, but
even if they got military grade security on their servers, there is far to much risk having your
medical records floating around on the internet. However, its not like they have been circulating on
the net for years through computer databases and what not, and that really surprises me that
hospitals haven't been attack or if they have, they been keeping it hush hush for years. ....
Alright well I've got google notifier on my mac and it works great, so I decided to install it
on my windows partition as well. Well I am having problems with the windows version (Surprised?).
Anyway the problem is that it doesn't remember my username and password. The mac version stores
my account username and password in the mac keychain, but the windows version prompts me for my
account username and password every time I start up the computer . It completely defeats the
purpose of the notifier. If anyone knows how to have it store the username and passwo....
I think it would be sweet to have a Google operating system. I searched google for it, and all that
I could find was a bunch of people with the idea for them to make one. I think they'd be able
to make it run all the programs we have already for Windows, Linux, and Mac, and make it a lot
better. They could integrate it with the internet a lot better that other OS's. So, do you
think they should make one, or that they ever will?....

On the growing concern about the Terriorists activites in Inidia, the Indian security agencies are
having a tough time in catching criminals and terrorists. The terrorists and their supporters use
the Google-owned Gmail or Orkut sites for their communication. According to security officials,
since Google servers are based in US and their IP addresses are masked, it takes a long time to get
the real IP addresses and log details of culprits. Moreover, Google demands a judicial order to
process the request which further delays the arrest of the accused, who may even have ....
i read in the paper today that google bought out youtube.com this week for 1.65 billion dollars.
Now thats a big aqusition for google, and if im not mistaken, the biggest purchase theyve made
during theyre 8 years in business. this is a big change from when google was just a small search
engine way back in the day. but aside from that, dont you find it a bit odd that google bought
youtube, when googlevideo just started up not very long ago? let me know how you all feel about
