I got a Google Cookbook with gourmet recipes created by Google Chefs, a Google Chefs Apron (black with colorful logo) and a book entitled Advanced Tips from Adwords Experts ... plus a nice cover letter.
I don't cook but it's a nice gesture and over the years they have sent out some nice gifts.
Not a chef either (unless they are chocolate recipes), so those big beach towels from years back got more use.
At least it's better than the giant 'Yahoo Button' (which, for those who don't know, was battery operated, about six inches round, and screamed out 'Yahoo!' when you pushed it) I got from them last year.
Personally, I'd have been just as happy with a share of Google stock. :-)
over the years G sent a digtal picture frame, wireless mice, thumb drives, and other odds and ends
one company sends a big gift basket every Christmas
it's funny how the little things get noticed in a big way - maybe i can learn something from this :)
