The Google founders messed up too. Google isn’t real, it should have been googol (a 1 followed by 100 zeros).
Cindy seems to be having trouble defining herself in retirement. When we had to offer the information for FETC registration you are required to include a company affiliation. I still list mine as UND. Cindy decided to use our book web site – learningaloud.com. The lady heard learningallowed.com and put that as an affiliation on our name tags.
The idea behind learningaloud is that learning results from generative activities. Hence, I blog to share what I know, but I also blog because it helps me learn. Learning aloud is a way to say I am learning out loud. Try explaining that to someone in a few seconds. I understand that some would interpret that as learning allowed which was ok and I have always enjoyed the play on words. I thought I was being clever, but perhaps I was being confusing.
I guess it worked for Googol.
