Abstract
What number is this? 2,000,000,000,000.
2 trillion. That is a huge number!
If it only required one second for me to write each of the digits that comprised 2 trillion, I would need more than 63,000 years to complete the task. Take that Methuselah! I would kick him out of his coveted spot on the Guinness book of world records for longest lived person if I could endure so long.
What’s so special about 2 trillion? That is the number of questions that the world throws at Google each year. Actually, for 2019 the amount might be closer to 2.4 trillion. Think of all the hopes and dreams, worries and wonders that the Google god-imposter-cloud has to listen to and respond to each and every day.
