A Look At Google's Newest Data Center

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the hey-google-gimme-a-tour dept.

miller60 writes "Google doesn't allow the public inside its secret data centers. But a recent groundbreaking event at the company's new South Carolina data center provided glimpses of the exterior of the facility, which shows a design that has evolved since Google's Oregon data center made front page news. A new feature: an open, lighted area resembling a parking deck (containers?). Still missing: moats filled with sharks with friggin' laser beams on their head."

      You can vote for him if you want another brain-dead invalid in the white house.

      Would you change his diaper and feed him his mashed peas? Just don't use the "airplane" noises to "fly" the food into his mouth -- he'll run for the hills screaming something about some guy named Charlie.

      I suspect that will be a good campaign promise for the 2010 and 2012 election cycles.

      Obama spent his SINGLE TERM as senator voting along with GW just like everyone else including all other top dems. like clinton, kerry, you putz. Obama supporters are so stupid/blind/ignorant to see who he truly is, and he's no different than mccain, bush, or anyone else in the same system.

      If he's no different, might as well vote for the guy who doesn't risk a heart attack or stroke any minute.
