Google Creators Interviewed by Playboy
Cristiano wrote in to say that an interview with the creators of Google is appearing in the latest Playboy Magazine. That in and of itself is of little note, until one realizes that the issue of Playboy in question is already en route to subscribers and hits newsstands tomorrow, the same day that their IPO auction begins. News.com.com speculates that the SEC may be interested, since this could be a breach of the "quiet period" companies must endure before going public. It may also be nothing but a mistake in scheduling, but it has cast doubts on Google's IPO for some.
Google+playboy a geeks wet dream!
I only buy it for the tech articles.
Bring on the booble jokes...
and this might be one of the only times when geeks are mentioned in the same breath with playboy, hot models, and boobs!
Let's have a race to see how many people can make the same joke in the first 100 posts!!!
Google for porn and you get over 8 million hits, buy playboy for google and you get only one issue.
I'd put my money on google...
The Right Reverend K. Reid Wightman,
Good luck with that man. Playboy has teh bandwidth to spare. Hugh punds hot babes on stacks of cash nightly. Whatever falls off the bed goes to the ISP.
Uphill battle indeed.
everything in moderation
who the hell reads playboy for the articles anyway?

Stay tuned for some shock and awe coming right up after this messages!
Am I the only one imagining a new "seasonal" logo for the "oo" in google?
On John Dvorak's blog there is a picture of the founder of google in drag accompanying this headline. Perhaps playboy will include this photo in their article?
...32,000 techies lost their jobs at various major software development companies on Friday, August 13th, allegedly for visiting a site contianing pornographic material. An anonymous vice president of information technology at a Fortune 500 company had this to say: "This represents a great step in removing these future pedophiles from our workforce. In our analyses we found that 86% of pedophiles had been exposed to pornography before the age of 18. Plain and simple, this proves that pornography is a gateway drug to sexual deviancy. Thank goodness we found these freaks of nature before they could cause any real harm to our enterprise."
What has *science* done?!? -- Dr. Weird (ATHF)
It gets better -- the alt text for the pics of the two Google guys is "Matt Damon." This is surely the first time geeks have been mistaken for hunky Hollywood stars!
I should buy some cement.
What do you think the oo's will look like in Google's logo on when this is issue is released?
gUUgle, I'm feeling lucky
