Google's local head of engineering, Lars Rasmussen, said 5-10 spots would be made available, with both technical and non-technical positions on offer.

    Who cares?

  2. So they are replacing the answering machine? by oztiks · · Score: -1, Troll

    Before that there was nothing but an answering machine telling callers

    "Hi you've called Google. We know you care about us, but on the flipside, we dont. You can try and email us but we wont respond to over 90% of the emails we recieve. PS dont forget to visit www.google.com.au and click on 'Signup to Adwords'. Thank you and Good bye."

    So now that they have an office, they've hired a desk full of people to say that manually?
