High school student Julia Eagleburger shares her story of playing and teaching soccer in South Africa.

Story #1,000 Goes Live in March!

Googolplex is celebrating a milestone on March 30: in our database system, the high-school level story Friendship and Challenge: Soccer in South Africa is the 1,000th item to go live since the elementary-school level story, Adopt a Pet, went live on January 1, 2001.

Let’s celebrate both ends of the spectrum! Look for the freshly revised Adopt a Pet in the Bonus Feature section on every archive page in Googolplex.

Don't know what an archive page is? Go to the front page of any interest/school level in Googolplex and click on any graphic image for a topic. That leads you to an archive page for that topic, where stories or games are listed by category.
