Darksat said: "Why do you think they are trying to expand & diversify so much."

edwin said: "cause they suck at search. i think they're becoming a noun. i.e. google = crappy"

Darksat said: "I hate that phrase to google it, I have so many recruitment agents ringing me up and half of them use that phrase, "hang on il just google it" fecking wannabe trendy remfs. Sorry, pet peve. :cool:"

edwin said: "i won't use it either, so don't feel alone."

beads4breakfast said: "Sounds kind of perverted to me. :eek: Either voyeuristic or definately some class of a verb... but it names an action I'm not going to define! ( I might offend someone) You'll have to use your imagination to figure out what I'm thinking "googling" means. For google to be a noun, it would have to be: google=crap. Person, place, thing, idea or feeling. ex, "This search engine is google!""

edwin said: "i suggest a new definition: [quote] google - to find your answer after searching 4 pages of adsense-stuffed pseudo-directories [/quote]"
