Apparently, Google turned 9 today.

Now, I could go to great lengths about the virtues of Google, but it all boils down to two things:
1. They offer amazing quality services.
2. The services are free.

There are some Google-related threads on the forum, such as searching for your own name, Googlefighting and the popular Google Earth/Maps Hunt. All in all, I'm very glad Google's out there for me, and I wish it all the best.

Happy birthday, Google! :cake

Google was created on the 27th of September?

Awesome!

Edit: Actually, looking back on the thread from last year, I knew that before but had forgotten about it. Very cool, nonetheless.

I didn't manage to find a thread from previous years. Which reminds me, we really need better search features. Such as searching only in thread start messages and stuff.

PS: Wanna see something cool? King Dugan's Dungeon "image" on Toogle.
