Google is a search engine, an amazing development in computer technology, with millions of daily hits or queries, a modern-day Ali Baba’s cave that yields a precious hoard of knowledge and information. The name Google is said to have been inspired by the mathematical term googol which is the number 10 raised to the 100th power—that’s 1 followed by 100 zeroes!—and represents a quantity greater than all the elementary particles in the universe, which is only 10 to the 80th power. “Google” is also a new verb in the English language, which means to search for something on the Internet. Do you wish to know more about googol, Gogol, gaggle, guggle, giggle, goggle and guggul—all mentioned in the poem? Well, google them up!
