What a Job

Saturday August 12, 2006
Google supplies its employees with free lunches, and as it turns out, they occasionally splurge on custom designed Google ice cream. Wow! What a job.

I do have to snark slightly and wonder if the ice cream may be one of the reasons Google lawyers seem to be working extra hours lately. It seems that they're concerned about trademark infringement, now that "Google" is also a dictionary-defined verb. They've apparently written some warning letters with examples of appropriate usage. Ironic, considering Google's recent controversy with Google Books.
