Probably the calm voice of reason here.
As I am located in Europe, where the day is pretty much over, I forgot
that it still has some way to run elsewhere.
We also did probably not get the coverage over here, about the
Google/Topeka story, as this is the first I hear about it.
One thing however does not fit : the lmgtfy site really links to
http://www.bing.com/search?q=....
but, at least in Europe, www.google.com looks entirely normal.
Now that I started using them, my little grey cells sugest to me that
rather than Google's, this is an April's Fool joke of the lmgtfy people,
again. I thus readily admit having been fooled, salute their renewed
inventive spirit, and withdraw illico my earlier snide remarks.
And Len was obviously faster on the ball.
:-)
Pity for their wallets though.
