I have mentioned the Google offices (Googleplex) before but I found out about this website today. I still think I work in a cool place, a pool table in the middle of the office can’t be a bad thing can it? - but these offices do look rather funky. In particular the Red Bull one.

I am back from Malaysia

November 2, 2006 | Travel, General
