Actually, google is a valid word. It is the name for the number that is a one with one hundred zeros after it (just like million is the word for a one with six zeros after it).
No, that word is spelled googol.
The founders of google apparently didn't know how to spell it properly, and decided to stick with google.

But google has become a verb, so that's probably why a dictionary finds it unobjectionable.

Me too.... and I like that number!!! (I even wrote a google to the googleth power once, 200 zeros....)
Err, that would have rather more zeros; 10 to the power 100 zeros. There isn't enough paper to write that many zeros on. A 1 with 200 zeros is merely a googol squared.

wait...you mean squared would make it a googol? or 1X10^200 = googol^2?
the second would be googol squared but if googol is higher it would be the first one right? :-/

or what did you mean?

I didn't write what I'd get if I actually calculated that, just a google with a superscripted one with a hundred zeros after it.

The latter.
Hah, I hadn't even noticed that semantic ambiguity.

Ah, now I understand, so
1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000010000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

That's the hundredth power of a googolplex, I think.

Hey! Stop breaking the page! A google plex is a google raised to the googleth power, if I'm not mistaken.

That's what I thought it was...

(yes towr, that's right, if there's 100 big zeros and 100 little zeros there (I am NOT going to count them)

You guys broke the thread. xD I just wrote 200 zeroes behind a 9 once when I was bored, but I don't know what power that would be at them moment.

What was the topic where we were talking about "Yes, we could" vs. "Yes, we would?" Can't find it. (haven't looked, either, but I remember needing to respond to one of those posts....)

And if you are mistaken, then it's ten to the googolth power. :P
