I think it means that you searched on google.

Not sure 'bout that

Most likely a corruption of the more logical expression 'goggle-eyed', which simply means 'having prominent eyes'.

A very common meaning was that it denoted the wide-eyed, innocent look, or maybe even more often the wide-eyed surprised look.
My guess is that Google coined their name after googling =staring intently
