Why do people say "Google it"?

Those people are naturally traitors! 500 years ago they'd have been executed. It's a good thing Yahoo! hadn't been devised then.

However, the main reason is probably that it is an offence against English punctuation to stick an exclamation mark into the middle of a sentence for no apparent reason, even if it is part of a registered design.

Yahoo < Google

Google is not only a better search engine, but it has become so popular that "Google" has entered our lexicon as a verb found in common conversation. Yahoo! has never achieved that status as best, nor that level of social pervasiveness.

Google is now universally accepted as a Verb for searching in the internet primarily using Google search engine.

Oxford dictionary, wordnet has Google as a dictionary entry:

There are some questions for which the answer is so obvious that one wonders why they were asked. Yours is not only today's winner, and in the running for the annual Most Obvious Question, on behalf of the committee, I can inform you that we are considering naming the trophy after you.

Google is the source of knowledge!

Google power go go go!

Yes, you are right. " Google " has becomer a popular verb, but only for inferior-minded people, who

have converted a brand-name into a verb. For instance, would you say equally-silly things like

" Exxon it !, " or " Nabisco this word ! " ?! I agree with you ; I wouldn't speak or write such a phrase.

I would say, " Please find it on Google. "

Google S.E. > Yahoo S.E.

maybe because it has been a synonyms of the word "search".

Not sure maybe you should "google it "
