From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
   Google
  
      The {World-Wide Web} {search engine} that
      indexes the greatest number of web pages - over two billion by
      December 2001 and provides a free service that searches this
      index in less than a second.
  
      The site's name is apparently derived from "{googol}", but
      note the difference in spelling.
  
      The "Google" spelling is also used in "The Hitchhikers Guide
      to the Galaxy" by Douglas Adams, in which one of Deep
      Thought's designers asks, "And are you not," said Fook,
      leaning anxiously foward, "a greater analyst than the
      Googleplex Star Thinker in the Seventh Galaxy of Light and
      Ingenuity which can calculate the trajectory of every single
      dust particle throughout a five-week Dangrabad Beta sand
      blizzard?"
  
      {Home (http://www.google.com/)}.
