    I just noticed that MS Word doesn't recognize the word "Googling" as a word, yet "Binging" gets by just fine. Chrome (which I'm using right now) actually dislikes both of those words. This is a clear abuse of Microsoft's monopolistic power and further evidence that they should be broken up. Even though they're smaller than the phone division of their insignificant PC rival.

        I think you forgot the joke icon.

        If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader." - John Quincy Adams
        You must accept one of two basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe, or we are not alone in the universe. And either way, the implications are staggering” - Wernher von Braun

              If monopolistic behaviour is the measure. BTW, have you searced for "Binging" on Google? You'll find out that it's a word. But nothing related to any search engine.

                I've never heard anyone use the word "Googling". I'm familar with the word "Trolling" though. ;P

                  "Googling" is not a word...Binging is a word and it has nothing to do with Bing. ;)
