Well, "Googling" is actually a gerund but I know what you mean. "Google" is a proper noun; there's no reason you can't use nouns as verbs (it's a pretty standard practice in English) so it's a verb too.

It's not much from how saying "I have to xerox this" or "He's out xeroxing the paper" was common when Xerox was popular for their photocopiers.
Nothing really new, since it's been done since the 1900's and before. People call tissues Kleenex, flavored drink mix Kool-aid, aspirin instead of acetylsalicylic acid, etc. There's a whole long list of things like this here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_generic_and_genericized_trademarks

Oh.. and how could I forget: Photoshopping.
