I use it with anything on a website I don't understand, which is moderately often. It rarely lets me down.

The name "Google" originated from a misspelling of "googol," [2] which refers to 10 raised to 100(a 1 followed by one-hundred zeros)
Google:The verb "to google" has come to mean "to perform a Web search", usually with the Google search engine.
Google's services are run on several server farms, which, in 2004, consisted of over 30 clusters of up to 2,000 PCs per cluster. Each cluster contains one petabyte of data with sustained transfer rates of 2 Gbps. Combined, over four billion web pages, averaging 10 Kb each, have been fully indexed.
it HELPS usually !!!!
Google began as a research project in January, 1996 by Larry Page and Sergey Brin, two Ph.D. students at Stanford University.They hypothesized that a search engine that analyzed the relationships between websites would produce better results than existing techniques which essentially ranked results according to how many times the search term appeared on a page. It was originally nicknamed "BackRub," because the system checked backlinks to estimate a site's importance.
