  • Google-Assisted Language Learning
    Language Learning & Technology February 2008, Volume 12, Number 1 http://llt.msu.edu/vol12num1/net/ pp. 3-11 ON THE NET You’ve Got some GALL: Google-Assisted Language Learning George M. Chinnery University of Maryland – Baltimore County INTRODUCTION "Just google it!" "Have you googled it yet?" "I'll google it later." Commands, inquiries, and intentions of this sort have become so commonplace in class discussions, during meetings, over dinner, and on the phone as to approach cliché. One article making the rounds on the AP wire even investigated "googling your date" (Irvine, 2007). The impact of the internet on the English, and global, lexicon is nothing new. It has become habitual to send e-mails or text messages in lieu of using snail-mail or calling on the phone. Many other forms of computer-mediated communication have similarly found themselves both publicly and officially recognized. In 2004, blog was named Merriam Webster's word of the year ("Blog Picked," 2004; Merriam-Webster Online, 2005). Likewise podcast, which the New Oxford American Dictionary named as its 2005 word of the year ("Wordsmiths Hail Podcast," 2005). Google entered Merriam-Webster the next year, though only as runner-up for word of the year, losing out to truthiness (Ahrens, 2006; Merriam-Webster, 2006). What is unique about Google’s cross-over is not only the fact that its brand name has trumped its function, in the same way many of us blow our noses in kleenex, toss frisbees, and dress our wounds with band-aids, but that it is this function with which it is synonymous (i.e., it’s a verb).

    INTRODUCTION Arguably the most popular search engine available today, Google is widely known for its unparalleled search engine technology, embodied in the web page ranking algorithm, PageRanki and running on an efficient distributed computer system. In fact, the verb “to Google” has ingrained itself in the vernacular as a synonym of “[performing] a web search.”1 The key to Google’s success has been its strategic use of both software and hardware information technologies. The IT infrastructure behind the search engine includes huge storage databases and numerous server farms to produce significant computational processing power. These critical IT components are distributed across multiple independent computers that provide parallel computing resources. This architecture has allowed Google’s business to reach a market capital over $100 billion and become one of the most respected and admirable companies in the world. MARKET ENVIRONMENTS Search Engine Internet search engines were first developed in the early 1990s to facilitate the sharing of information among researchers. The original effort to develop a tool for information search occurred simultaneously across multiple universities is shown in Table 1. Although functionalities of these systems were very limited, they provided the foundation for future web- based search engines. TABLE 1. Early Search Engines Search Engine Name University Year Inventor Archie McGill University 1990 Alan Emtage Veronica University of Nevada 1993 Many students WWW Wanderer Massachusetts Institute of Technology 1993 Matthew Gray Source: Battelle, 2005. Search Industry During the 1990s, the Internet experienced exponential growth with thousands of new web pages being created daily. Online document search became the chief method of navigating the ever- expanding World Wide Web, as Internet users sought useful information among the largely disorganized pages.
