I heard that China also blocked other websites that used Google. Why didn China block elgooG too?
We believe that elgooG survived the Great Firewall of China because the firewall operators thought that elgooG was a joke and not a fully functional version of Google. 1.14. Does the Google Mirror support other languages? Elgoog supports other languages except for Chinese, Korean, and Japanese. Click here to select your language, or follow the “Language Tools” link on the elgooG home page. 1.15. What does “Google” mean? “The site’s name is word-play inspired by googol, the term that describes the very large number of 10 to the 100th power (which works out to 1 followed by 100 zeroes), which apparently suggested the large number of Web pages that the search engine has indexed. Although as yet somewhat short of a googol, Google’s capabilities are nevertheless impressive. According to an earlier estimate (when they could search 2 billion Web pages), Google says that the pages searched would create a 110-mile high pile of paper if they were printed out.” (definition from whatis.com) 1.16 A
