I think a Google scarf would go nicely in a box with my AltaVista free internet disk, and my .com stock from 1999.

WoooHoo! I came into my office today and found mine draped over my desk-chair! My boss passed it along to me and I am wearing it around showing it off even though I have shorts on lol. Thanks GOOGLE, thanks Boss!

:)

BTW,

I wonder did they send these to people in warm places too?

I'm in Arizona!

mahlon - that is too funny! Can anyone else confirm that you are in a WARM place and received a Google scarf?

People are wondering why SERPS aren't relevant and why Adsense ads aren't properly TARGETED.

Let's start with Google sending geo targeted Holiday gifts! LOL

Wah! I'm freezin' my butt off here in San Francisco (okay, I've grown weak... I was colder when I attended Northwestern :D), but I've not yet received a towel, a scarf, or a job yet from Google*. Granted, I'm putting hundreds, not thousands of dollars into AdWords a month, but still... :¦

* P.S. - 14 Google interviews and counting... trying for the Guiness Book of World Records!

Well you should at least have your own Visitors Id/Badge by now after 14 interviews

Should get the next one just for persistence i reckon!

Wow - a scarf that keeps you cool in summer as well as warm in winter?
Whatever next?

Us Brits are finding it harder and harder to keep up with the English language sometimes... <grin>

Hmmm... I'm thinking india has the least per capita need for scarves. Perhaps you should be grateful? heh

Has anyone tried washing their scarf yet?

It appears they have used a special Google dye. 30 minutes in soak with a strong bleach detergent and the secrets to the Florida algo appear ;)

Thus confirming the algo is a bit woolly ;)

BTW, I see I'm a Full Member now (by the skin of my teeth - my occasional antics have stretched the mods' patience, but I'd like to thank them for being so reasonable and putting me on the straight and narrow :)

Oy, superscript, every thread I come into you're talking about Florida. ;) C'mon, you're a Senior Member now; people expect more on-topic-ness. ;)

"scarf...loves it... as much as the homeless man I gave it to. "

Panic, is that your way of helping Google advertise?

Yeah... I'm sure they'll land a ton of prospects that way.

I'm still holding out for the Google all natural enhancement solution to increase your bar length from 6 to 10 in length!

Wow, I'd be the envy of all my friends with a huge green bar like GoogleGuy's!
