Googling is using the popular search engine Google.com
to look up someone's name in an effort to find out more about them. You
might Google your neighbor, your old college roommate, or someone you've
recently met to see what information is available about them on the Internet.
Because Google has a ranking system, there is an unsubstantiated belief
that the more Google returns a person has, the more important they are.
To Google someone, enter their name enclosed by quotation marks in the Google
search box like this: "Person's name". If you Google yourself,
it is called autoGoogling or egosurfing.
