Posted by Zonk on from the morning-browsing dept.

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."

  4. And from New York... by pomo+monster · · Score: 3, Informative

    Curbed.com has a photo tour of Google's new office in Chelsea (15th at 8th), for which they just signed the lease a few days ago. 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.

  5. google-analytics on Slashdot by Oscaro · · Score: 4, Informative

    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) are included on every page on this site.

    Check the page source and see for yourself.

  7. Re:All the children drew "tm" by artifex2004 · · Score: 2, Informative
    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%?
