Google was a mistake or I 10 duotrigintillioned you!

I prefer Google to Googol. It’s more natural in the English language. I think that’s why they misspelled it that way.

Love the ability to research old vid’s. We make mistakes all the time & hopefully learn & grow, although not always as fast as google.

i remember seeing this in my 3rd grade english book.
IDK why but i guess i missread it because for years, i’ve been calling
it ” A goozey ” lol i coulda swore thats how i read it from my book. but o well. Thank you Marina.
you are amazing.

Carl Sagan discusses the googol and the googolplex: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gh4F5BQ8hgw

A piece of paper large enough to write out a googolplex would be so massive it could not be stuffed into the known universe.

You’re posting all over the place today, eh prospero811 :-) Interesting stuff.

Ha! Yes, Marina – I guess I have! :smile:

Great pictures, the one in red is a special one (I think I watched the start 10 times :oops: )

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barney_Google Perhaps there is some issues with the use of the name google as there seems appears to be prior use of this word. Not that i would call you into question on the matter just a suggestion?

my random lesson and good job Marina :!: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QOHg5uuZjwY&NR=1

Thank You Marina, Very interesting……….

I am not a “Word Person” and such things have never been of importance but I much enjoy your lessons. Perhaps, had my school teachers been as beautiful and clever as you I would have been a better student.

Very interesting video, thanks for informing. Its funny that the biggest website was a mistake, and no one knows about it :grin:

The Inspector General said that Gogol.com was taken :!: :mrgreen:

Google is indeed a young word, but it’s not 8 years old, not even in 2007 when this video was made.
According to Google, http://www.google.com/corporate/history.html , since 1997 the company was named Google Inc, the final form, that we also recognize it by today. So 2007-1997=10 as opposed to 8, as Marina stated in her video, from 2007!
Am I being attentive? :P

Barney Google; Edison Disc :mrgreen: :oops: :mrgreen: spike jones barney google………….)00(……….:-)

nope. gogle is from old polish words and it means glasses.
and another thing, ‘goog’ the word was created by image of glasses (two eyes insid and a two ears).

ps. it’s cuz it got many with search, so many people are searching for their glasses? where did put it?
another think is that google means ‘many eyes’ -> ‘glasses’.
so its logic, also with “many eyes ten”. Zero is the eye.

ps2. so on there is a word ‘eye bill’ :)

ps3. on the other way ‘many eye thing’ (glasses) (with 4 eyes in word).

What’s a Google?

“Googol” is the mathematical term for a 1 followed by 100 zeros. The term was coined by Milton Sirotta, nephew of American mathematician Edward Kasner, and was popularized in the book, “Mathematics and the Imagination” by Kasner and James Newman. Google’s play on the term reflects the company’s mission to organize the immense amount of information available on the web.

Is it just me, or was Marina even sexier in the old days? Back then she always looked like she just woke up. Now she is so hyped up, she looks like she is taking speed.

Every time you roll those Big Beautiful Baby Blues my heart skips a beat. So darned cute……….

Barney Google with the goo goo goo googly eyes : http://patternsofink.blogspot.com/2008/04/with-goo-goo-googly-eyes.html

What a fun lesson!
:mrgreen:

I know, I just had to watch it again for the fiftieth time.
I love that lesson in the way that Marina tells the story.

She does an awesome job! This is a fun review of HFW history!

:D

Yes, it is great watching the lessons over and over again
and it is fun reminiscing about what was happening in the past.

I think of songs that mark my past usually, but I can now see how Marina’s teachings can do that! 2007 was a great year!
:grin:

Hi Marina,
To fix the aspect ratio of this and other videos uploaded before the YT guys converted everything to 16:9, you should add in the TAGS section the following:
yt:stretch=4:3

Some guy made a video explaining this fix at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFPcAIM8fB0
