Slogan Don't be evil.

Google Name Meaning. A googol is the large number 10100,which is a digit 1 followed by one hundred zeros. The term was coined in 1920 by nine-year-old Milton Sirotta.

Google Name History Larry and Sergey decide that the BackRub search engine needs a new name. After lots of thinking, they go with Google – a play on the word “googol,” the mathematical number (above). The use of the term reflects their mission to organize a seemingly infinite amount of information on the web.

Holy Cow! Then double that. I love many of these Googley good Google things and use some everyday. But it does worry me when a company grows so huge (and so fast) and is into so many areas. Big money companies have a way of causing a lot of harm to our earth and the people in it. Sure hope that doesn't happen with Google too.
