Just Do a Backrub Search?

If you thought Google was a funny name for a search engine, this nostalgic site shows that it was formerly known as Backrub. Phew!

I’m trying to imagine if we all said “I backrubbed you” instead of “I googled you.”

Weird.

Yeah but “google” is actually a word play on the mathematical term googol which is the number one followed by 100 zeros. Yes I’m like the only female geek you’ll find and that’s how I know this
