verbification

The art, through poor language, of taking a noun and turning it into a verb. When the common verb describing what a noun does, doesn't spring to mind. Poetic license is used to best describe this action using the noun.

John "I've decided to build my own house. So I've enlisted the help of an architect. He / She will be architecting over the next few weeks".

Sam "nice verbification there John... Its a shame he'll be designing your home"

Interweb Verbification

A broader, more inclusive definition of google it. Interweb verbification is the manner of instructing someone to search a specific word or topic on a website by making the name of the site the active verb of the sentence.

You: I can sell some stuff when I move out.
Friend: Craigslist that junk!

You: I'm not sure what fiduciary means.
Friend: Wikipedia it!

You: How many calories do you think there are in a Big Mac?
Friend: Google it.

You: I'm not sure where exactly the restaurant is.
Friend: Mapquest it.

Interweb verbification will replace words like "look", "search" and "find", among others.
