It was originally nicknamed "BackRub" because the system checked backlinks to estimate a site's importance.

Google search - Etymology.
The name "Google" is an accidental misspelling of the word googol, which was coined in 1938 by Milton Sirotta, nephew of mathematician Edward Kasner, to refer to the number represented by 1 followed by a hundred zeros, 10100.

GNU's goal was achieved in 1992. Its own kernel development project, GNU Hurd, had not produced a working kernel, but a compatible kernel called Linux was released as free software in 1992 (under the GNU General Public License). These "GNU/Linux" systems are commonly referred to as just ...

| | | | | genericized trademark: Encyclopedia II - Carbon dioxide - Chemical and physical properties Carbon dioxide is a colorless gas which, when inhaled at high concentrations (a dangerous activity because of the associated asphyxiation risk), produces a sour taste in the mouth and a stinging sensation in the nose and throat. These effects result from the gas dissolving in the mucous membranes and saliva, forming a weak solution of carbonic acid.
Its density at 25 °C is 1.98 kg m−3, about 1.5 times that of air. The carbon dioxide molecule (O=C=O) contains two double bonds and has a linear shape. It has no electrical dipole. As it is fully o ...

Dry ice at normal pressures does not melt into liquid carbon dioxide but rather sublimates directly into carbon dioxide gas at −78.5 °C (−109.3 °F). Hence it is called "dry ice" as o ...
