Try this link: http://www.fpx.de/fp/Fun/Googolplex/
which says:
"The American mathematician Edward Kasner once asked his nine-year-old
nephew to invent a name for a very large number, ten to the power of
one hundred; and the boy called it a googol. He thought this was a
number to overflow people's minds, being bigger than anything that can
ever be put into words. Another mathematician then shot back with
googolplex, and defined it to be 10 to the power of googol."

What number comes before a googolplex?
A googolplex is defined as (10^{\text{googol}}), where a googol is (10^{100}). The number that comes immediately before a googolplex is (10^{\text{googol}} - 1). In numeric terms, this is a 1 followed by a googol (100 zeros) minus one, resulting in a number with a very large number of digits.
What is the real name of googol?
The term "googol" refers to the mathematical concept representing the number 10 raised to the power of 100, which is written as 10^100. The name was coined in 1938 by the American mathematician Edward Kasner, who asked his nine-year-old nephew, Milton Sirotta, to come up with a name for this large number. There is no "real name" for googol beyond its mathematical designation, but it serves as a way to illustrate the concept of very large numbers.

What does a googol of atoms equal?
