the greatest website of all time. it should have a word in webster's dictionary. starting with google. then the verb google and googling. then googleness, googleosity, googleish, and googleesque. yahoo is a word, but they suck, and gogol is a word, but it's spelled stupidly and is a number. maybe a religeon: googlianity

they still don't have googleesque or googleness
 
Yeah, but those are just silly.
 
but they make sense. I can only dream of the day where everyone opens up their browser and sees that google homepage with the searchbox...
 
You're just a bunch of googlish goggle-clutchers.















Not that there is anything wrong with that, of course.
