== == Our beloved Google got it's name from Googol, which is a math term.

A googol is the large number 10100, that is, the digit 1 followed by one hundred zeroes. The term was coined in 1938 by nine-year-old Milton Sirotta, nephew of American mathematician Edward Kasner. Kasner announced the concept in his book Mathematics and the Imagination. The internet search engine, Google, was named as a play on the number googol.
