Lol... look at all the dorks.

Also - A googolplexianth = 1 over a googolplexian

You cant get one over a googolplexian... you can with a googolplexianth! :)

I added the spoiler tags to part of your post as it was annoying to scroll down just to see a bunch of zeros.

Also to eleborate on the number you mentioned:

One googol is presumed to be greater than the number of elementary particles in the observable universe, which has been variously estimated from 10^79 up to 10^81. And I just took a look at the number you showed, I don't think that's the complete numeric notation as supposedly it's impossible for someone to write it down. What's more correct is "10^{10^{100}},!"
