Google's Server Cooling Plan Produces 4ft Alligator

Posted by Unknown on from the who-doesn't-have-a-moat-dragon dept.

concealment writes "In addition to potentially keeping Google's search and email programs from overheating, the pond also has become home to plenty of algae, which meant Google had to stock it with fish. And since this is the Lowcountry, the food chain didn't stop there. 'So we now have a 4-foot alligator that has taken up residence in our pond as well,' Kava said, clearly amused. He added that government experts have said it'll have to be removed once it grows to six feet long."

    Closely guard, I'll say. I live in Goose Creek, down the road, if you will, and the place is more or less sandwiched between the forest and the Cooper River. I've seen it on maps multiple times but it's not a place you simply bump into.

    Have seen a few Google employees buying stuff in my store, though. They're alright, I guess. Kinda stuck-up people, considering most were security guards. Well, okay, all of them were security guards. I don't know where the regular employees are at, but they certainly don't get out much at night.
