How can Blogger.com's spell checker not know the word "Google"?

I was using the Blogger.com spell checker to check the spelling on a blog post, and I noticed that the spell checker does not know the word "Google"! Check out this screenshot. It recommended googol.

Although the correct spelling of 10100 is "googol", I find it hard to understand why the spell checker wouldn't know the other spelling, because a) Google is now a rather famous company, and b) Google Inc. owns blogger.com.

Guys, you might want to add the name of your own company to the spell checker. And while you're at it, go ahead and add your competitors' names to the file as well.
