Google's name originated from a misspelling of "googol," a number represented by a 1 followed by one-hundred zeros. Page and Brin said:" We chose our systems name, Google, because it is a common spelling of googol, and fits well with our goal of building very large-scale search engines."

It is clear that Google is really amazing. It affected our lives so much that it even got its own verb. According to the Merriam-Webster Collegiate Dictionary, "Googling" is "to use the Google search engine to obtain information on the Internet."

The way the company progresses and expands its services, we can assume that "googling" will soon take a much broader meaning.
