'One google' is 1x10100. In other words, 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000
A googleplex is 1x10one google (to save me typing the full number) - in other words, one followed by a google of 0's.
Useful numbers to know if you're an astronomer ;D
