- benijuana, on 10/12/2007, -0/+31I used to deliver pizza in the PA area when I was going to Foothill College last spring/summer. Google would order 3-4 times a week at lunch, and I would get lost every single time on their campus. "You're in what building? On what road?" was pretty much my lunch shift mantra. Oh and that magnetic Patxi's sign I'd put on the top of my car fell off once when I was going 80 on 101. It's easy to forget your car is slightly less aerodynamic when you have a big plastic advert on the roof. Google employees tip very well though.

I've never understood it. - Foxman2000, on 10/12/2007, -0/+10#21 Massage Parlors - Happy endings guaranteed.
... Maybe that should be higher on the list? - benijuana, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9actually i inherited my car ('99 infiniti i30) from my late alzheimers-addled great aunt, so I've got one of the earlier in-car GPS systems in it (She always forgot where she was going after she left the house. God knows why my family still let her drive). Still, its not that accurate and it doesn't work when the car is motion, which is a bitch. Really though, only in palo alto does your pizza guy drive an infiniti with gps... it explains so much about the area.
- bariswheel, on 10/12/2007, -4/+10I decided not to comment, but now it's too late...diggity digg me down
- madmax22a, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7seeing some companys headquarters isnt on my top 25 list of things to see before i die, much less 25 things that are there.
- pufuwozu, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Dystopian?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Number 26: The algorithm.
- Tourniquet, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Maybe it's not even real...maybe it's just a list generated by some old computer in a closet somewhere that makes people *think* it's live Google searches...
- growlzor, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Seems like none of those things you could see before you die, well unless you work there of course but I'm pretty sure if you worked there you'd think you'd died and gone to heaven.
- L0phtpDK, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3So.... It would just say "porn".
- fallenone05, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Ok, now I'm good. GOOD BYE CRUEL WORLD!
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4Before I die? Doesn't everything I do (other than decomposing) have to take place BEFORE I DIE??
How about just : "25 Things to See at the Googleplex"
It is understood that I won't be able to see them after I die, mmkay. - Maggoo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2It can't be that "live"...you'd never be able to read anything because it would move up the screen far too fast.
- quicksilver, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Actually, in Memphis, TN I drove a 96 I30t, now a 94 BMW. It's weird, though I would never had thought another pizza driver would be be driving a I30, too. Best damn car ever
- jabberwock1977, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Yes, odd choice of word.
- washcapsfan37, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3The only thing I want to see is my name on my Google paycheck.
- washcapsfan37, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3@madmax22a
Next time, stop the gas and follow the directions. - supahj, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Oooh look pools, food,video games
80 hour weeks.......oops I forgot to have a life - EASwanson, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Actually I was at Google's HQ last year for their annual "Google Dance" and i got to see this live board. I watched it for a little bit and didn't see anything too out of the ordinary. They might exclude search results with unwanted phrases because this this is in a lobby after all.
p.s- They have ping pong and a full room of washers/dryers at Google. Also Google lets you set your own hours in the week :D - megaloid, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2"cheerfully dystopian," i.e., "1 + -1"
- dyvbond, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3I'd like to see the Googleplex at all...
- claynferno, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1LOL @ "Building Pi - Houses a replicant factory (rumored)."
- spankaccount, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1"cheerfully dystopian".... wha?
- bootle, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1dystopian?
"You keep using that word, but it does not mean what you think it means" - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Someone find out the receptionist's name that sits nearby. We'll all start sending him/her messages. :)
- flipmeat, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Bingo. Not only are all the perks basically golden handcuffs, they are also used as justification for low salaries.
- llbbl, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2I want to see it because I don't believe there can actually exist a place that is awesome to work at. ;)
- aacidusX, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2the live list of searches is filtered and only displays popular ones.
- SEJinDK, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1After reading #15 I just had to search google:
Hello Google Workers :) - weizilla, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1needs bigger pics
- genckas, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1I thought you cannot take pics of the "live searches" :)
Hey if someone searches your name, do you think it would show up there? Would it be cool :P - reefnet, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I stopped reading (and laughed) at "cheerfully dystopian". Get a dictionary.
- alicam, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1OOH OOH. 1000th digger. I must have no life. So this is a big deal to me.
Thank you all for sharing the moment :) - angusware, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1@Roadtrippy
You're right. That's like that AOL search results stuff that got leaked, I garuntee that all of it is searching for porn. - Asbak, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0I am wondering where the Google think tank is. Those two little swimming pools don't seem fitting.
Offices aren't big on my to-do list. But I guess this article should make it easier for a disgruntled blogger to find the guy/gal he/she is looking to clobber. - benijuana, on 10/12/2007, -14/+10its a nice personal touch, out of place on digg, but well-intentioned. I wouldn't stress...
- hoppdawg, on 10/12/2007, -6/+2opps (digg needs an undo button)
- hoppdawg, on 10/12/2007, -6/+1I hope to god I live long enough.
- adamkhel, on 10/12/2007, -7/+1I've been there. Other than the cafeteria(s), it's really not *that* amazing.
-A - MackDiesel2010, on 10/12/2007, -9/+2Y'all don't know JACK about pizza!
- madmax22a, on 10/12/2007, -17/+1none of the employees recommended google maps?
oh wait i used them for directions a few weeks ago and they told me to turn into a dead end residential area looking for a bar. - adamkhel, on 10/12/2007, -21/+4More like 25 things to see at the Googleplex before Google dies.
