Brand Names Which Have Become Generic
Google Inc. is an American multinational public corporation which provides Internet search, cloud computing, advertising technologies, and search engines. The word "Google" is commonly used as a verb, i.e. "using an internet search engine." The search engine is so often used, that "Google" found its way into everyday language, and was added to the Merriam Webster Collegiate Dictionary and the Oxford English Dictionary, as "to use the Google search engine to obtain information on the internet."
