“I’ll Google it!” The word Google has become more than just a company name but is something that most of us use on a daily bases as a verb. When I was growing up, if you wanted to know something about a particular topic you’d ask your parents, look it up in the encyclopedia, or beg your parents to take you to the library where you could find a book published years ago by looking it up in the card catalog.
