This article is a journalist painting the glass that is 3/4 full at Google as 3/4 empty. There's nothing creepy about Google except that they try and make the lives of their employees easier. It's not an isolated cult with barbed wire fences.

They have a dinosaur as a leftover of the previous tenant. So what. They won't talk about China on the record because they're just on a tour. Expect anything different?

I would have preferred the journalist ask some interesting questions to the Google staff and then give those answers to the reader.



I think that Eric Schmidt bought the dinosaur, actually.


Well, you work Google, right? Thought of writing a book about what's really going on?


I'd like to continue working for Google, so there's not much I could write that hasn't already been written. ;-)


Will you at least let us know when they acquire a giant penny to go alongside the dinosaur?
