“Earlier this year, the company launched a redesign for its core service that helped spotlight information, made it easier to read with bolder, larger text, more white space, and color, and all-around just made it more “Googley”. Additionally, it gave everything from the search bar, the search icon, and so on a more rounded-off look to match its new logo.”
“Apparently, a googol is such a large number that our minds couldn’t possibly comprehend it. Nothing on earth – not even grains of sand, or drops of water in the ocean come close to that number (except maybe chess move possibilities), and a googolplex is much larger! When you put it into perspective, Google’s mission to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful means that it has or hopes to have a googolplex of data, and stopping you page by page is no longer sufficient. That’s both reassuring and terrifying all at once, wouldn’t you say?”
