Google and World Conquest.
It has been, for some time now my suspiscion that Google plans world conquest. With each passing day, my proof becomes more sound. What do you think of when I say google? Most people probably just think of a search engine, a very good one. Just a white page with an image, some buttons and a text box. Oh, but google is oo so much more. Ever notice the links at the “bottom”? Try clicking the link labeled “About Google”…You will be surprised. Don’t get me wrong, if anyone is going to take over the world, I definitely opt for google. They do everything right, and take everything the extra mile, as is the Google Philosiphy.
There is this mystical Force at google that goes by the name of Google Labs. They pump out some pretty crazy stuff, and they do some pretty crazy stuff. Google labs is all about research and Development. Perhaps one of the more interesting items released By google labs is Google Compute, a Distrubited Computing system. In short, google compute allows google to take advantage of your computers idle time to
…worthwhile endeavors, including projects to improve Google and its services…
It is the Google and its services that freaks me out… :-p
Ok, so you want a job at google labs? Google Does alot of problem solving things to find potential Google Labs Employees. The most recent Wonderful peice of insanity is the GLAT (Google Labs Aptitude Test)
None of the problems are that difficult, and most are pretty fun (there are no problems with unix >:o [unless they speak of the women…])…some of them might even give you a laugh…I will post more on “solutions” later.
