I wouldn't use the word "Googling" to refer to searches performed on
other services, but I believe that the usage, if it persists, will
eventually encompass all competing services, if that hasn't already
started to happen.

I find "internet" ugly, but www.wired.com specifies the small "i" in
their style book. Logically, I suppose that small "i" makes sense, as
we don't refer to to "Telephone" and "Television."
