BlameThePixel!

Yes, I get your point. But the name Google started off as a joke that it would be able to index 10¹⁰⁰ pages, then someone spelt it wrong...

edit - fixed the 0.

is it only that? i thought it was 1 to the 1000 (how do u do the superscript?) or is that a googleplex?

type into google 'elgoog' and click im feeling lucky.

Cool page, but totally pointless.

there's a sup tag? never knew that...


A google is 1*10¹⁰⁰, not 1¹⁰⁰, 1¹⁰⁰ is just 1 .
and a googolplex is 1*10^googol, which is a larger number than there is anything in the universe.
Now that's difficult to imagine .

check http://www.googol.com , that's actually a really good site. heh.

edit: lol at elgoog. It actually reverses what you put in the search box, so if you put elgoog you get the real google, and if you put google you get elgoog, but the right way round.

they must get alot of people accidently spelling google going there. this was on the news i think. some illegal site with obscene images had the nearly same name as things like bobthebuilder.com or tweenies.com

yes I know someone who went there by accident when someone else told him to type google.com in. Still, they do link to google.

How is it possible to accidently write elgoog instead of google?

did i say that? no. i meant. type into the search engne called www.google.com 'elgoog' and click im feeling lucky.

Aha, you talked about googol.com, I see...

o stupid me zogger. yes, i know that i was just being stupid.

i was undfer the impression that a googol was a 1 with 100 zeroes after it, 1*10¹⁰⁰ as mentioned above, but a googleplex was simply a googol²?

the guy thinks he knows how much shit is in the universe? he's gone off the deep end.

that cant be right. there has to be more then a googol particles in the universe. it's pretty big u know. lets email him telling him he's a retard. and i dont like your sig btw re, i thout the Sig Not Hidden was hillarious.

This is getting kinda of topic...
