Quote from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_(verb)
To prevent genericizing and potential loss of its trademark, Google has discouraged use of the word as a verb, particularly when used as a synonym for general web searching. On February 23, 2003,[9] Google sent a cease and desist letter to Paul McFedries, creator of Word Spy, a website that tracks neologisms. In an article in The Washington Post, Frank Ahrens discussed the letter he received from a Google lawyer that demonstrated "appropriate" and "inappropriate" ways to use the verb "google".
In short, you WILL NOT use the word "google" as a verb at every possible opportunity because it will le hurt their corporate feefees
