  Ten Duotrigintillion   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
The short scale ten duotrigintillion, is also known as a googol.
In 1938 some 9 year old kid decided to call ten duotrigintillion a googol for no real good reason.
Ten duotrigintillion is of no particular significance in mathematics, nor does it have any practical uses.

And yet, 10 duotrigintillion years is only the beginning of eternity.
The concept of infinite time throughout eternity gives us a powerful reason to redeem the time in this life.
Will you squander time today on temporary things of this world, or will you consider the next 10 duotrigintillion years to come redeem the time?

A. When mathematicians Edward Kasner and James Newman introduced the "googol," the word caught on, says Isaac Asimov in his "On Numbers." "Personally, I think it's an awful name, but the 9-year-old nephew of one of them invented it, and what could a proud uncle do?"
A googol's the number 1 followed by 100 zeros, or ten duotrigintillion in American nomenclature.
Even national economies are beggared by such a count: The U.S. gross national product is around $10 trillion, or only 13 zeros.

 Families and Technology: Best memory for your memories
You will also need to hope that in 30-100 years that your great-great grandkids will have the technology to read that tape and to decipher what's on it.
By then they'll be using some miniature compact flash cards that store Duotrigintillion bytes of data, and you will buy them in 50-packs for $15.99.
Or maybe do what I've been doing for the last 10-15 years.

 Google A Number?
Kasner popularized the concept in his book Mathematics and the Imagination.
Using the long scale, it is equal to ten thousand sexdecillion (or sedecillion), or ten sexdecilliard/sedecilliard.
One way of grasping its size is that it is equivalent to multiplying 1 million by 1 million 16 times, then further multiplying that by ten thousand.

I thought I'd leave this message for you in the hopes that you might eventually stumble upon it -- like a little tucked-away Easter egg.
I'm guessing that in the future we'll all have our brains wired to the Internet, in which case you'll just have to think-search through ten duotrigintillion files.

 The Status System
Only 5 decimal places are allowed, but there can be less.
The Status System as a whole is not designed to hold values greater than 9.99999E99, which is a googol [or 10 duotrigintillion]
If the value happens to go higher than this, "ERR" is displayed.

You should really think up a new name...
That is like coming up with a book resource and calling it Daintree, or a search engine and calling it duotrigintillion.
I think the design looks incredibley sophisticated and clean.
