Groo·gle /ˈgro͞o gəl/ - Noun - a form of groupthink that occurs within Internet communities, such that participants falsely believe they're engaged in something never done before, thereby drawing attention away from prior achievements outside the group. The condition is particularly prevalant amongst Internet entrepreneurs and self-ascribed "futurists."

Jeremiah Owyang Groogle-izes at Webcom in Montreal
Jeremiah Owyang's blog -- Three Future Trends in Social Business -- could have been written (in fact, has been written) a decade ago. Indeed, outside the Silicon Valley sphere, these trends have advanced far beyond what he identifies as "still to come."
Mr. Owyang is an analyst at the Silicon Valley-based Altimeter Group. His profile page describes him as "frequently quoted in the Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, and USA Today, and...a frequent keynote speaker at business and technology conferences around the world."
In our opinion, Mr. Owyang, on behalf of the Altimeter Group, is speaking pure Groogle.
