The Meaning of Google

Nowadays, Google is one of the most famous names on the Internet and this was proven by plenty of surveys employed by a lot of polling firms. Because of its popularity, most of the Internet users are always discussing about it as if it's a celebrity. But have you ever asked yourselves of what does Google stand for?

According to one of the online dictionaries, Google stands for a brand used for a web-based search engine. This brand often occurs in print as a verb, consistently in lowercase.

The name started as a way to the amount of data the search engine can search for. It was first named 'Googol', a word that means 1 followed by 100 zeros.

It is a very big value. As a matter of fact, there is no googol of something in the created universe. Google's use of the word shows Google's vision to reorder the all numerous amount of information and make it generally handy and functional.

Since it is a company name, Google is a noun. Slowly, however, but certain, it develops and likely to become a verb as a lot users refer to the act of doing their research in the Internet as "googling".

My Google Maps Experience


When I began using the internet, I often chance upon such the term Google maps. I oftentimes ignore it because I don't exactly know on where to use it, and furthermore I don't even have a use for it during those instances. I only rest on surfing the internet with the use of different search engines, not until it was introduced to me by my companion who happened to be an internet savvy.

I took advantage of this Google maps for once and it provided me a positive result. Looking for a specific location was made easier because of this application. The word alone, I almost learn what these Google maps all about, and it is exactly what it literally means.

My very first observation with Google maps was great. If and only if I was able to explore what's with it before, maybe, bringing my huge map when we go around the town was not necessary at all.

From that time, I began sharing it with my friends, too. I'm very thankful to Google maps because searching for a place or a newly opened restaurant in our area became a lot easier.

Who Do You Think Created Google?

I have chance upon plenty of articles, the man who created Google was an Indian man named Krishna Bharat. Since I am an avid Google fan, I got curious to know more about him. From there, I went to our city library just to satisfy my curiousity on the creator of Google.

While doing more research, I've come across an entirely different story. According to it, Google was created by two university students named Larry Page and Sergey Brin. Google at first, was created as a project to further improve the manner on how data were stored and distributed in the Internet. Furthermore, it was only in 1997 that it was known as Google.

After going over plenty of online posts and resources, I was bothered because I was able to encounter two entirely differently stories. However, my quest did not end there. I went deeper and deeper on my research but most of the stories that I browsed were same with the second story. That's why, I am not convince that it was really Larry Page and Sergey Brin who created Google.

I often fantasize of winning the lottery jackpot price, and yes, I deeply believe that it is not an absurd idea. I always remind myself many of "what if's" until I ended up thinking on how I'm going to spend all the millions.

Having a lot of instant money is very exciting. The best venue on where you can put your money is by investing it on the stock market. You can have a finance adviser to clearly explain everything to you. You can also do some readings on mutual fund information because it will help you understand how the business works.

Rather, if you are very into business engagement, you can put your money in companies that have good and have been operating for plenty of years. It is also a good for you to gather ideas on how they manage to be on the business scene. You will discover how they performed for the past years.
