A Googleator is a tool used to search for something on the internet. This is a generic term typically used when asking someone for a device to search (without having to ask for a "smart phone" or "tablet" or "laptop" or whatever). It simplifies the question without having to worry about what type of device they have.
"Hey Wendy, do you have your Googleator because I am trying to settle an argument and need to search the internet".
