They're just numbers ... it's all relative. That to the power of itself makes that look like a blip.
Bah! Call me when you have a Googol-byte :P

You know, I bet you could make up any word you want and it will probably be a number SOMEDAY. I mean, numbers go on forever, words don't.
HIBIBBLYJIBIBBLYBOO!
You don't even want to know how many zero's are in that one! lol

Haha, so true. When the guy who defined googol was trying to decide on a name, he asked his 9-year-old nephew what he thought the name should be. He thought googol sounded fun, so that's what it was :P
And apparently googolplex was originally defined as "one, followed by writing zeroes until you get tired" :D

Really? So a googolplex is only 1 followed by 3 zero's?? Crazy! lol

No a googolplex is:
10000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000...00

10 ^ 1 = 10 (1 zero)
10 ^ 2 =100 (2 zero's)
A googol is
10^100 =10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,00 0,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000, 000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000
i'e a 1 followed by 100 zero's
a gooogolplex =
10 ^ googol =
a 1 followed by ten thousand million million million million million million million million million million million million million million million million zero's
Which is a fairly useless number in everyday life.
