I googled "Google" on Google and got 973,000,000 hits in 0.11 seconds. Can anyone find a single word that gets more hits from Google than "Google"?

Re: Google

Okay, since "html" is not a word but an acronym, I suggest "web" instead. Still over 2 billion hits.

Hmm. The word "a" gets 6,870,000,000 hits. I actually expected that one to be a stop word but I guess not...

Re: Google

4,9 billion for 'the'. Seems like 'a' is more popular...

(I got 7,17 billion for 'a')

What's this 'hobby' thing you keep on going about?
