| 595553 | 2007-09-27 04:50:00 | Traditional entertainment at birthday parties in Latin America. I guess they were just looking for something other than the usual party balloons to celebrate their 9th. | Biggles (121) | ||
| 595554 | 2007-09-27 05:13:00 | Anyone know what that second 'g' (www.google.co.nz) is supposed to be? :lol: I think it is something highly mathematical. The name "Google" was derived from some mathematical formula. |

| 595557 | 2007-09-27 05:44:00 | 10^100 = "Google" ? Nah its more like each letter of the name google represents some number. I read an article about Sergey Brin whose parents are math professors or something and he was explaining how he and Larry came up with the name of Google and its mathematical significance. |

| 595558 | 2007-09-27 06:05:00 | The name "Google" originated from a misspelling of "googol," which refers to 10^100 (the number represented by a 1 followed by one-hundred zeros). | roddy_boy (4115) | ||
