    Yes? Damn...well never mind then.
  • hbweb500, on 10/10/2007, -1/+12He only takes pictures with famous people.
  • Roger, on 10/10/2007, -2/+11You were hoping for an attractive man?
  • xyzunit, on 10/10/2007, -0/+9Read the article, you might learn something.
  • Bricks, on 10/10/2007, -0/+9Its pen and paper Brain Age
  • fquednau, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8On that pic with Chris Tucker you can see on Meng's board the words written Blue, Green, Red - Blue is written with Red colour, Green in Blue and Red is written in Green. Some weird Engineer humour that must be...:)
  • barroni, on 10/10/2007, -1/+9Wont be long before people go to google to get a photo with him
  • trer, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7So you're commenting on Digg because you couldn't get laid tonight. Or any night. Am I right?
  • Asianwaste, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8Muhammad Ali looks like he is in prison.
  • Trax91, on 10/10/2007, -2/+8He looks like Ray Romano. Seriously, an asian Ray Romano. They share the same teeth and droopy eyes.
  • alciadanet, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6He doesn't look like an error message to me :o

  • Prathik89, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5have to bring ron paul into everything?
  • ivanomak, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4That's Silicon Valley for you - people have no time to go clothes shopping, and what's the point anyway if you're sitting in a cube all day?
  • crashflow, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4I dare Osama to show up at the Googleplex
  • Nanobe, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Not to be confused with GoogleGuy, an anonymous Google employee who posts on public web development forums with optimization tips and other Google information.
  • cocoamix, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Anyone else think the picture of him with Eric Schmidt is kinda pointless?
    I mean, he probably works in the same building as the guy.
  • craig4, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3when he retires it will have a lot more meaning, most likely the reason he took the picture.
  • Amablue, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2The guy who flew that flying carpet into the Sultan's palace. Don't you ever watch disney?
  • umrgregg, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Yeah. Everyone knows it's "fap"
  • Tombag, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2http://picasaweb.google.com/chademeng/MediaStars/photo#5057433441107043042
    That's only funny because he's posing for a different picture than Gwyneth and that other guy.
  • Amablue, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Smart people often have more important things than fashion to worry about.
  • GawtMilk, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Copy and paste the link into a new tab. It'll load.
  • Amablue, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Yeah, how does he get the time to do his coding or engineering in those weeks or months between photos? I usually need twice that long to get anything done =/
  • Jaxxman, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1SImply means that the smarter you are the dumber you are with social things
  • Bricks, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Did I diss your screenplay?
  • ianweir, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Because clearly if you don't perfectly fit into the fashionable mould that society has cast for you, you're a retarded monkey.
    Screw fashion, we've got bigger problems.
  • Asianwaste, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1WTF is a Gaucho?
  • quik22, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1@ afruff23
    he only has candidates with a chance of winning.
  • quik22, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1who's osama bin aladin?
  • Cambo, on 10/10/2007, -4/+4What a Legend!!!
  • cassarani, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1You're a moron.
  • inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1So long as that England woman is there to pose with him and Meng (perhaps making a naked pyramid) it'd be okay.
  • umrgregg, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1HOLY SMOKES! Ray is WET. Google needs to spend a bit more and install air conditioning.
  • quik22, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1***** you bricks! =)
  • CanadaMan87, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1HOT DICKINGS!

    oh wait, that's Tran.
  • maygle, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1more about Tan Chade-Meng
    http://www.maygle.com/google?q=%22Tan+Chade-Meng%22+buddhism%7Cbuddhist

    he is a buddhist
    http://www.buddha.sg/htm/general/email.htm

    he is a singaporean,not a chinese
    http://www.serve.com/~cmtan/Meng/resume.html

    he have a smile with 8 tooths outside.
  • phanfromcheese, on 10/10/2007, -4/+3I wonder if he aspires to meet Ron Jeremy
  • Barnolde, on 10/10/2007, -2/+1I like how the most important person on the list is the one of the ones who needs to have an explanation, its like elementary school, my dear Watson:
    It is an eclectic group. Colin Powell, the hippie activist Wavy Gravy, John McCain, Hillary Clinton, Gwyneth Paltrow, Robin Williams, Jane Goodall, Tom Brokaw, George Soros and James D. Watson, the co-discoverer of the structure of DNA, have all posed with Mr. Tan.
  • mandarin, on 10/10/2007, -2/+1So you're just some guy who works in Google.. but meets all these people? How do you find the time to have your pictures taken with all these people if you're working?
  • Zbrah, on 10/10/2007, -3/+1Whoa...Chris Tucker looks different!
  • stgeorge, on 10/10/2007, -2/+0Ok... Why is Kurzweil drenched in sweat and beaming with post-orgasmic afterglow? That crazy Mr. Tan!
  • bovox, on 10/10/2007, -5/+3These Google guys make six figures salaries, yet still have the fashion sense of a gnat. How hard can it be to just walk into a store and just buy the same outfit that is on a mannequin? At least that way you know that a designer had put some thought into the outfit. What is the point of making bucket loads of money if you live life like a retarded monkey?
  • inactive, on 10/10/2007, -3/+1Where did the Gwyneth part come from?

    Theres no pics of him with a fitty, just that old moose...
