Instead of

URL requestUrl = "http://www.google.com/ig/calculator?hl=en&q=1USD=?GBP";

you should have

URL requestUrl = new URL("http://www.google.com/ig/calculator?hl=en&q=1USD=?GBP");

EDIT

First, change the return type of doInBackground() to JSONObject :

protected JSONObject doInBackground(URL... urls) {

urls is an array, so to access the url in it, you have to specify the position :

URL url = new URL(urls[0]);    // urls[0] is the URL you passed when calling the .execute method

You want to process a JSONObject in onPostExecute(), so you have to change the return of doInBackground :

JSONObject json = loadJSON(url);
return json;

But for the rest, it seems that you just copied/pasted a code and there seems to be a lot of code missing, so it's hard to help you more... You have to change loadJSON so it does the processing you want (get the data from the Url, process it and return a JSON Object). I fact, copy the code you put in your other StackOverflow question that you posted a few minutes ago...
