Inside Google's London Complex

An anonymous reader writes "ZDNet has some interesting pictures of Google's new London office which is incidentally looking to boost its 200-man headcount. Also, a Doodle 4 Google contest was held in conjunction with the office opening for schoolchildren."

And from New York...

[pomo monster]

Curbed.com [curbed.com] has a photo tour of Google's new office in Chelsea [curbed.com] (15th at 8th), for which they just signed the lease a few days ago [nypost.com]. At 311,000 square feet, it's over three times the size of their previous midtown space.

The floor's not much to look at now, but I'm looking forward to seeing it fully decked out when they throw a party someday (keeping my fingers crossed!) I'll invite y'all.

"Moderate SafeSearch is on"

Yeah, someone really misfiled that one... (although Tripod have removed the site in question. It's a photo of a penis, for those who don't feel like clicking the link.) Possibly it got selected by a human at Google, the image was switched or defaced, and then was automatically updated by a crawler bot.

google-analytics on Slashdot

[Oscaro]

I know I'm going almost off-topic, but I think all slashdot readers should know that the much-discussed google-analytics scripts (see here [slashdot.org]) are included on every page on this site.

Check the page source and see for yourself.

Pictures of the new NYC Googleplex have been posted online as well, here [curbed.com].

Re:All the children drew "tm"

[artifex2004]

If you look with your eyes, you may see that in 2 of 5 pictures, the TM is clearly done after the kids are done with the drawings.

Plus they probably had the original Google-logo with the TM to base their doodles on.

Sure looks to me like these were just xerographed logos, that they colored with crayons and markers. Meaning the TM wasn't added after, it was there all along, just ignored by some children. So perhaps counter-jokes about kids starting young ignoring trademarks and copyrights are more appropriate. 2 in 5? 40%?
