Oh Google. You have provided us with many great things: searching, emailing, documents. And there is so much more! You seem like such a serious web competitor. You are heavy handed with the likes of John Chow and you proclaim to be free of evil. And while some may view this as a dominating and overbearing position, I admire your gall! And I also know that you have a sense of humor to go along with all of this. Lets take a look at what you have done:
- When you click a Google ad twice, Google may urge you to “give your mouse a break”
- They display cheese if you’re at the highest zoom level at Google Moon
- During April Fool’s, they say that pigeons determine the ranking of our web sites
- Google pretends they’re an airline at parties
- You can enter ‘niniane kicks ass‘ into Google Maps to locate the Googleplex headquarter and Google employee Niniane Wang
- They display spam cooking recipes in your Gmail spam folder
- Their calculator read Douglas Adams’ science fiction book and says 42 is the answer to life, the universe, and everything
- Their employees look like smurfs every now and then
- Google offers you Klingon as search interface language
- When Larry Page talked about other Google rules than just “Don’t be evil” he said “We allow dogs, for example”

Nice little compilation list David, some of them gave me a chuckle. It would’ve been nice if you made each of them linking to a source / context so we could click through and find out the back story to each item\ (or like in the case of the calculation) be linked directly to the item
Thanks for the tip, Dave. I added the relevant links!
GOOGLE - The world is mine)

It sounds like it’s sleeting, but every time I turn on the outside light & look, nothings happening.

Now this is a post I would love to Digg. And not forget : they can kill your site and family business in a second. But who cares….Adwords is soooo great, right? With that super secret QS no one knows what is it..

I like the cheese in the moon. It’s nice to see a company using a sense of humor every once in a while.
