	Don Markstein's Toonopedia: Barney Google
		The name "Barney Google" is familiar to anyone who ever watched a TV retrospective of comic strips —; he's the guy with the "goo-goo-googly eyes" in the 1923 Billy Rose song they always play in …
		Barney (who was about half as tall as the other characters) enjoyed horse races, prize fights and similar contests, and was nagged by "a wife three times his size" (as the song goes) for it.
		There was an animated version of Barney Google in the 1930s, produced by the Charles Mintz Screen Gems Studio — the one that had earlier failed to capture any of the wit or charm of Krazy Kat.

	Barney Gumble - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Barney is generally portrayed as being Homer Simpson's best friend, known from when they were at school (where Barney was Harvard bound until Homer gave him a beer the night before his SATs), although they have the occasional fall-out during the series.
		Barney showed his artistic side again in the episode 2F31, "A Star is Burns", in which Barney won top prize at the Springfield Film Festival for a moving documentary about his life as an alcoholic, called "Puke-a-hontas".
		Barney served in the United States Navy Reserve for a short time, as a submariner on the USS Jebediah (3G04, "Simpson Tide") with his own mother as his superior officer.

	Barney Google - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Barney Google and Snuffy Smith, originally Barney Google, is a long-running American comic strip.
		Snuffy was so popular that his name was added to the strip's title in the late 1930s, and Barney Google himself virtually disappeared after the 1950s.
		Barney Google's face is immortalized in the Polk County, Iowa courthouse (in Des Moines).

		Barney Google and Snuffy Smith is one of the longest-running comic strips in history.
		In 1942, Barney Google was inherited by DeBeck's long-time assistant, Fred Lasswell, who continued to draw the strip until his death in March 2001.
		It has added several phrases to the American vernacular, including "sweet mama," "horsefeathers," "heebie-jeebies" and "hotsie-totsie." It has been the inspiration for a hit song, "Barney Google (With Your Goo-Goo-Googly Eyes)," and is one of a few historical comic strips to be honored on a special set of U.S. postage stamps.

	Boston.com / Business / Technology / Feelin' googly
		The English were googling, after all, back about 1380, when the word was a variant spelling of goggle, to squint or "turn the eyes to one side or the other" according to the Oxford English Dictionary.
		Google could still be spelled that way in 1576, when Thomas Newton used it to mean "cause to shake," describing a weakness that "googleth their unstayed heads." Goggle became the common spelling, however, as the word evolved to mean "stare in disbelief" or "roll one's eyes."
		The OED claims that google for goggle is obsolete, and refuses to commit itself on whether the variations from the dawn of the 20th century -- google-eyed (wearing glasses), googly-eyed (staring), goo-goo eyes (sappy lovers' looks) -- are revivals or new creations.

		The Housing Committee of the Post-War Planning Council highlighted the 700 block of Southeast Avenue (Barney Google Row) as an example of the worst housing in the city.
		The name Barney Google Row probably refers to a Billy DeBeck-King Features comic strip character: Barney Google was a citified hillbilly and engaging ne'er-do-well.
		The designation Barney Google Row may have functioned as a humorous, a denigrating, or a dismissive characterization of residents in terms of a comic strip character who came from a poor rural area, spoke a catchy vernacular slang, and was unprepared for the new circumstances of life in a city.

	Muck and Mystery: Barney Google
		The wing nuts have been nibbling Google for some time now to little effect but the opening of a Google portal in China, which was then subject to PRC regulation, has provided a new wedge for the wing nuts to hammer.
		We don't generally trust companies to possess the kind of multi-market dominance that Google has enjoyed for several years; trust in Google based on the notion that it was "different" seems to have been misplaced.
		Google became big by being competent, and the only competition that benefits society comes from real competitors, those who have a good idea and the ability to implement it.

	mentalblog.com: Etymology of the word Google
		The official Google version is that "Google is a play on the word GOOGOL, which was coined by Milton Sirotta, nephew of American mathematician Edward Kasner, and was popularized in the book, Mathematics and the Imagination.
		Caroline Birenbaum, Kasner's great-niece, speculates the coinage may have been inspired by a comic-strip character, Barney Google, who debuted in 1919.
		Not insignificant is that the name GOOGOL was coined "close to 1920" while Barney Google cartoon character debuted in 1919 and was not initially a children’s comic strip.

		When Google met Smith in 1934, the cartoon became hillbilly hilarious -- "one of the most famous strips in the country," said former DeBeck neighbor Mary Joan Mann.
		"Google was the Everyman of the Jazz Age," said Brian Walker, who wrote Barney Google and Snuffy Smith.

	Declaring my love for Google
		The name "Google" is related to the word googol, which means 10 to the hundredth power, or 1 followed by a hundred zeros.
		As far as I know, "Google" is not related to "Barney Google" the comic strip or "Barney Google With Your Goo-Goo-Googly Eyes," the 1923 song by Billy Rose.
		It even turns out that Billy DeBeck, the creator of Barney Google, did not invent the term "goo-goo eyes," but it is alleged that he invented "horsefeathers," "heebie-jeebies" and "yardbird." Be good to your google and your google will be good to you.

	Don Markstein's Toonopedia: Snuffy Smith
		Within a few weeks, however, he and Barney were pals, and not too long after that, he'd become co-star of the strip.
		In 1954, Barney left the hill country but the strip's focus stayed, and Snuffy was its sole star, with his wife, Louise ("Weezy") as his main supporting character.
		As in the newspaper comics, he shared the spotlight with Barney Google, but Google became less prominent as time wore on.
