I've just heard the verb used intransitively: 'It googles', meaning it shows up on a Google search. There are a handful of ghits for "if it googles" in this sense. It seems an obvious and useful extension.

Google is perfectly fine if you use google as a verb, just if you're using their search engine with it. i.e. You can't "google" YouTube. (well, once that Google fully acquires it, I bet you can)

Xerox is often used as a verb; much like Kleenex is often used as a common noun. These usages don't seem to have caused any trademark infringement suits to be brought against the English language. If people find "to google" to be a useful word, then I say use it!
