google-ometer?
A quick search of AWADtalk shows 5 posts with googlometer, all mine and 3 posts with google-ometer, all tsuwm's, in the last 6 months. This is excluding your post, Jackie, asking the question. Googlometer and google-ometer both score a good solid zero on the googlometer; googleometer (with no hyphen) scores a minuscule 3mT. It is my opinion that the hyphen is unnecessary in this context and that including the e only causes confusion, leading to expectation of the pronunciation googlyometer and the notion that it somehow is a device for measuring the curve of a bowled cricket ball.
