A Googolplex is 10^(googol) , or 10^(10^(100)).
This number is so big, although is as far from infinity as the number 1, that is almost useless.
Wikipedia makes an interesting statement about this big number
"A googol is greater than the number of elementary particles in the known universe, which has been variously estimated from 10^72 up to 10^87. Since a googolplex is one followed by a googol zeroes, it would not be possible to write down or store a googolplex in decimal notation, even if all the matter in the known universe were converted into paper and ink or disk drives."

It is 10^googol, or 10^(10^100)
(3^2 means 3 to the power of 2 which equals 9)

A googolplex of years is longer than the universe has been in existence; longer, I suspect, than the Universe has time left to it.

There's no such thing as a "googooplex." What you meant was "googleplex." Of course, it's not a measurement of time anyway, it's just a number...so your question is just dumb no matter how you look at it.
