- woojoo, on 10/12/2007, -7/+326when google takes it down, all you latercomers can still laugh at the screenshot X)

- Riluske, on 10/12/2007, -7/+143Your add-ons scare me
- 47knight, on 10/12/2007, -9/+119Screen shot in case it ever changes:

Possible google style bomb for the maps.. nothing to do with google other then their ability to be manipulated from time to time =]
- atbnet, on 10/12/2007, -11/+88Very clever. Haven't hit puberty yet have you?
- rcran, on 10/12/2007, -6/+79Hold on, I'll be right over.
- Mesach, on 10/12/2007, -3/+55If you look at H which is the main campus, it shows an image of the Bob desktop.
- GawtMilk, on 10/12/2007, -11/+61I'd reckon his balls are just starting to drop. He didn't replace a single 's' with a dollar sign, that's saying something!
- blakex, on 10/12/2007, -1/+42It's a greasemonkey script so you can dig the page after actually reading the article...
http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/7864 - SlvrEagle23, on 10/12/2007, -2/+42What harm is there in a little friendly rivalry between huge multinational corporations?
Surely there are plenty of easter eggs around the Live sites, but does anybody notice? Noo!
Try it for yourself...go to Live search and search for "***** Google".
...then come back disappointed. >:D - devilish, on 10/12/2007, -1/+37@woojoo --- 100 points for the link.
I followed the link and saw nothing wrong -- thanks for the img! - mrjoshua, on 10/12/2007, -5/+41You might want to blur out your e-mail address in the image.
- Rummey, on 10/12/2007, -10/+42what are you guys talking about? He only has two extra toolbars -- Web Developer and the Google Search.
Wussies.
Mike - TroubleT, on 10/12/2007, -0/+32It's pulling in the image from http://www.yelp.com/biz/KcWwO1Hc9BqDDgXlfKEAxg?hrid=V41CAxNmtYhcXXdQDNTjxQ
Also, that is not the address of Microsoft's HQ. It's not in Bellevue, it is in Redmond (just a few miles away). - Rhine23, on 10/12/2007, -5/+33Psst, whats the link for that green digg bar. It looks interesting.
- Evolve, on 10/12/2007, -10/+36My god man/woman, got enough tool bars/bookmarks/spyware?
Thats nearly as bad as http://static.flickr.com/19/112803058_b377cdabf9_o.png
How could you even work with that clutter? - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -6/+27Why is it that everyone on here is so interested in Anti-Microsoft stuff yet 99% of them use Windows? This just boggles my mind.
(Don't get me wrong, they do suck. That's why I run OS X) - Prysorra, on 10/12/2007, -1/+20His toolbar has "Scare Tactics".
ALL IS FORGIVEN. - Ninjab3ar, on 10/12/2007, -4/+21If you posted this in the Apple section, you would have created a riot. Shame on you for doing the right thing.....
- fkr3, on 10/12/2007, -3/+18Also curious is the bit where everyone hates Vista and is converting to Linux because Vista is so bad. But when Vista's cracked and they can use it for free it's huge front page news. Digg users hate Windows and love Linux, but would rather pirate Windows than use Linux.
Bizarre. - shadowpr0ph3t, on 10/12/2007, -3/+18I thought internet browsers were for looking at web pages? Not toolbars!
- cyphin6, on 10/12/2007, -4/+18You do know users submit locations of business.... so it's not really google
- wahooka, on 10/12/2007, -5/+19its from yelp.com not google.
its not like google intentionally put it there, which is what the poster is implying - 47knight, on 10/12/2007, -5/+17Too many toolbars? I only have 2!
- Holk23, on 10/12/2007, -3/+15I see you were listening to Dead Star from Muse on your faster fox......nice
- antigravit42, on 06/14/2009, -2/+12digg^ for listening to muse
- sctechguy, on 10/12/2007, -4/+12Hm, you just gave us all your email address. I'd change that real quick.
- Rhine23, on 10/12/2007, -2/+10Thank you blakex. You rock my socks.
- thcobbs, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Anyone actually do some research for that street address?? Here's a tip....

Therefore, SHENANIGANS!!!!!!!! - madeingermany, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6it could have been worse... look at the other image, yelp has for that Microsoft entry:
http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/KcWwO1Hc9BqDDgXlfKEAxg?select=Qge8224ObiXoaR12vStmrw - woojoo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6i know yer email 0_0
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+6No font anti-aliasing makes the eyes bleed! And why does the whole thing look oddly 1999-esq?
- Agret, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2hah you've got the same problem that I had on my old Firefox install, random blank toolbar before your main toolbar.
I'd get rid of the Google bar as it's useless on Firefox, stick to the search box. Other than that he's just got the web dev toolbar. - Shark500, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3http://www.yelp.com/bphoto/7kzQucUJFJYQs_yRTcR0bg/
this is the most direct link to it that i can find - fLUx1337, on 10/12/2007, -4/+6Some nice addons their 47knight... :P
Same as mine really, CSS toolbars, validators, etc.....the life of a coder huh?
I also have extended my taskbar to 4 lines of tabs...
On my old 15" screen, I had around 10cm of site space in firefox! Now I have doubled it with my new 26" screen! :P
Anyway, onto the subject.....just been bombed thats all! You work out what phrases google uses to find images - you can get any image to display as a google maps image! ;) - LocalH, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2@mesach: That's not Bob, that's Win9x with the "Mystery" theme in use.
- abandonedhero, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Probably part of something submitted by a Google user.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1this is fake. i actually looked up microsoft the other day and it wasn't like that.
- kubix, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1"Try it for yourself...go to Live search and search for "***** Google".
...then come back disappointed. >:D"
Damn you.. I actually tried it :P. gave me a laugh, thanks :) - nevetS, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3This is from the DMOZ directory listing. Google often pulls descriptions directly from DMOZ.
http://search.dmoz.org/cgi-bin/search?search=windows+defender
(this was a reply to Darcy quoted below since the threading doesn't seem to have worked)
From Darcy:
This is the second thing today that makes me think that Google are having a bit of fun at Microsoft's expense.
Take a look at the text under the windows defender search result here:
http://channel9.msdn.com/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=294663
http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=windows+defender&meta=
That text doesn't appear on the actual page, and I don't think MS would have wrote something that stupid. - munky100, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1thats quite funny!
- drakethegreat, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Even more so the block it shows is apartment complexes next to the Bellevue Village QFC. Interesting since I don't see how Microsoft could have any offices as that address. I know they used to own space in Bellevue Plaza on the corner of Bellevue Way and NE 8th.
- rushoffailure, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3Impressive ascent, agent
- Contrid, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The image got removed after all it seems.
Thanks for posting the screenshots. - zippy757, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1@frugalfreak ...everyone knows that DIGG is controlled by about 20 readers.... and the days of it being 'the will of the people' are already gone...
- loconet, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1It comes from yelp.com
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1ZOMGWTFBBQ1one1one1one1one1one
- MikeZ, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2 no comment I, got the 100th comment!!!
- SailRacer, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0That's fantastic!
