Google celebrating today with a new banner.

Not from where I'm standing (Europe). I see the normal google banner at the moment.

Don't use google. try this instead.....

http://www.cuil.com/

Can't get it from here too.
Snapshot please!

My name on Google gives my work web page as the first hit, and 8/10 first page hits are relevant.
On Cuil, I searched the first three pages of links with no actual hit on sight.
So, no thanks, until they get better.

(This is OT )

Nice !!! Thanks Dan.

I'm sure that when ESA's anniversary comes along Google will put up something appropriate.

Apt. Love it.

Or how about "404: Not Found"...

Perhaps with the words "Not fit for public consumption"

Yeah -- and in the background, you can hear a giggling voice saying "Mine, all mine! I can look, you can't!" Followed by the sound of a clearing throat, and the more stententious proclamation "Um, nothing interesting for anyone but us Special Scientists to see, anyway. Trust us."

Followed by more giggling...

*sigh*
