    What’s the address at that joint? I want to Google Earth the Google Campus…check out their spread from overhead. The bushes probably spell something you can only read from the sky.

      The Google Campus is nothing, you should check out the Baidu Campus. They have cool stuff like a tainted food cafeteria, and you can hang out at Censorship Corner where a video screen projects live search queries of Chinese dissidents. Their motto is of course: “Be Evil”.

        Google is a large company whose motto “Don’t be Evil” has long since fallen into disuse. Google has become the 800 pound gorilla of the Internet and has gotten the reputation of being the next Microsoft in all of its negative connotations.

        It’s a good short term investment as their stock is constantly climbing, but eventually their “whatever we do is good for you, no matter what you may think” attitude will catch up to them.
        (or at least many people hope).

          Is Lindsay preggers?

          • geoffrey s. mendelson One year ago

            Since you followed my post with this :-)

            I wondered that myself when I saw the iPhone show. I just figured it was an unflattering sun dress. If she was and did not want to say anything, it was not my place to ask, and if it was a poor wardrobe choice even the more reason to keep quiet.

              She can’t be preggers - she is on that birth control pill - at least that is what the ad says…..

                Wow, that “Google” company sounds really neat and innovative. I’m going to do a search on Yahoo Finance to try and find their stock symbol.

                Needless to say, excellent episode.

                Lindsay never gets old. It’s August and I still love watching her as much as I did in April when I first found you people…

                  I much prefer my shack out back where I work for a virtual company that doesn’t require me to commute every day and waste time and gas. disclosure, I rode google from 200 to 400 and dropped out. I’m sure I would NEVER be considered googly and don’t really care that much. Could the man in black, Johnny Cash ever be googly?

                    Guys - don’t start with the preggers thing again. Just because last time those rumors started flying she appeared in spandex (Garmin episode) to shut you all up, doesn’t mean it will work again. Don’t be jerks. Seriously.

                    As far as the Google campus goes, the only place I’ve seen that could possibly rival its coolness, is Pixar. That place blew my mind. I’ve never seen so many people happy to be at work in my life. It was unreal.

                    Great episode!

                      happiness at work is overrated.

                      Food is not.

                        The one thing I enjoyed from the video, besides watching lindsay bike into things, is the mention of picasa. http://picasa.google.com/

                        Not sure how much picasa has infiltrated the photo management market but I’m a believer.

                        I don’t use flickr anymore because of picasa.

                        sorry flickr…i still love you for your social aspects.

                        But, I can’t imagine managing my photos without picasa. I actually left the old version for flickr but with the latest version it makes uploading your images to your picasa web photo album easy, and then it also allows users to download,purchase, etc very easy as well.

                        Basically, my family now understands how to get pics of my newborn son, etc and before with Flickr and others they couldn’t figure it out.

                        That might say more about my family then it does for these apps…so take it as you will ;)

                        good video…don’t own google….i’m an idiot.

                          Love this episode. Love the word “googly”. But the best part was hearing about the lobster for lunch.

                            Btw, what’s up with their no split policy? Are they just Buffet wannabes or is there some valid market strategy (other than perception mgt) at play here?

                            • Howard Lindzon One year ago

                              why should they split. its just a number. i agree with their strtagy on this

                                Just want to say…

                                I love your guys video cast. Rocks. Keep up the good work. So much better than i have seen elsewhere on the net.

                                    You are adorable Lindsay! You look like you were having the time of your life at Google. By the way, they are trying to take over the world but they do it in such a way that they actually make you think they are doing you a huge favor. I do regret selling my shares, but hey I have to pay for B school.

                                      Flash: I know for a fact half the people at Pixar were on Prozac. That’s why they were so happy.

                                        hic trader:

                                        Google does not want too many hics owning there stock. That’s why they won’t split. Can you imagine the volatility caused by trailer trading? Image is everything once you get passed the fundamentals.

                                          exactly maximoooo

                                            that’s pretty much what I thought, perception management. I guess the bottomline is the funds don’t care about the price per share.

                                              oh and wait - Lin, puts him on hold ! …
