Reader's Digest １１月号の記事 'How to Sound Smarter, with Expert Help' からの引用です。
The key: preparation. If you're interviewing for a job, review the posting and take advantage of the whole Googleplex of information about your prospective company.
"Googleplex of information" とあるので "Googleplex" はGoogle検索と関係があるのかなと調べて見ると：
・The Computer Language Company Inc.: Google's headquarters in Mountain View, CA. The name has two meanings: firstly, it is the combination of Google and the company's headquarters (the complex), and secondly, it is a takeoff on the mathematical term "googolplex," spelled "g-o-l," not "g-l-e." A googolplex is 10 to the power of googol, written as 10googol.
この記事からすると "Googleplex" はGoogleの本社を指し、引用文での意味では正しくは "googolplex" と綴るべきだったようですが、私と同じようにGoogle検索で沢山の情報が得られるとの連想から "Googleplex" と書いたのでしょう。将来こちらのスペルの方が普及するように思えます。
