Random Facts

[dibbly_dobbler]

Ok just for fun let's have your random facts with a bit of about them.

I'll start

A googol is 10^100 or
10000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

A googolplex is 10^googol or 10^10^100

Written in the smallest available font it would be longer than the width of the universe

but not to worry because as there are only about 2.5 × 10^89 elementary particles in the observable universe there's nowhere near enough ink to write it anyway !

and just for good measure did you know that the company name Google is a misspelling of the word "Googol"

Over to you

The film "Pretty Woman" was not meant to have a happy ending. Julia Roberts' character was meant to be kicked out of the car at the end after Gere's character caught her taking drugs.
