As a result of the increasing popularity and dominance of the Google search engine, the use of transitive words to google (also spelled Google ) is growing everywhere. Neologism usually refers to the search for information on the World Wide Web, regardless of which search engine is used. The American Dialect Society chose it as "the most useful word of 2002." It was added to the Oxford English Dictionary on June 15, 2006, and for the eleventh edition of the

Etimologi
The use of the first recording of google used as a participle, thus presupposing the intransitive verb, was on July 8, 1998, by Google co-founder Larry Page himself, who wrote on the mailing list: "Have fun." and keep googling! "The earliest known use (as a transitive verb) on American television was in the" Help "episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer (October 15, 2002), when Willow asked Buffy," Have you already googled it yet? "On February 23, 2003, the company sent a stop letter and stopped to Paul McFedries, creator of Word Spy, a website that tracks neologism.In an article in Washington Post, Frank Ahrens discussed a letter he received from a Google lawyer which shows the "inappropriate" and "inappropriate" ways to use the verb "google." It was reported that, in response to these concerns, the lexicographers for the Merriam-Webster Collegiate Dictionary lowered the actual entries for the word > google , while maintaining the search engine capitalization in their definition, "to use the Google search engine to search for information online" (concerns that did not deter Oxford editors for preserving the second history of "case").On October 25, 2006, Google send a request to the public requesting "You must only use 'Google' when you actually refer to Google Inc. and our services.

Maps Google (verb)
Unable to Post
Can not Be Posted, (or not accessible to Google) is a term for something that can not be "googled" - it is a term for something that can not be found easily using the Google Search search engine. It's increasingly being used to mean something that can not be found using a web search engine.
In 2013 the Swedish Language Council attempted to include the Swedish version of the word (" ogooglebar ") in its list of new words, but Google objected to a definition not specifically related to Google, and the Council was forced to remove it briefly for avoid legal confrontation with Google.
Cause
Google Search generally ignores punctuation and capitalization even when using operator "quotes" to indicate the exact search. As such, Google may not be able to distinguish punctuation-impacting terms - for example, "chicken-eating men" and "human-eating chickens" (which used to mean humans who consumed chicken meat and the latter were chickens that ate humans). Since Google treats capitalization and lowercase as one and the same, it also can not distinguish between the pronoun he and last name he , which, when combined with his waiver for punctuation , can bury the results for an unknown person named "Thomas He" among the results like:
... Assisted by Thomas, he can provide unquestionable evidence of this theory, and thereby he gained wide recognition in the medical world...
The above also exemplifies how Google PageRank algorithm, which sort results with "importance", can also cause something to be ungoogleable: the results for those with the most common Chinese surname 17 ("He") are difficult to separate from the results that contain 16 most common words in English. In other words, certain subjects may be ungoogleable because the result is a needle in the resulted haystack for a more "important" term.
Websites on the inner web are ungoogleable as they can not be detected by a regular search engine.
