Take the Google Quiz

..and win a messenger bag

[nutsandbolts]

Link is on the front of Google - but I get a Cannot Find Server on the Quiz Link... :(

[heini]

Beat me, Nutsandbolts, was just asking myself - is this new or what...

[korkus2000]

Sounds a lot like the gizmo quiz to me.

[Brett_Tabke]

Can't get too it right now - must be flooded.

[heini]

actually looks more like trivial pursuit to me

[nutsandbolts]

Flooded?

*nutsandbolts refreshes Quiz screen 50 times*

;)

[heini]

>gizmo

so this thread should be in Foo then

[rmjvol]

My guess is it's intended to take the strain off of www2&3. :)

Larry: Those WebmasterWorld guys are flooding us when the dance begins.

Sergey: Let's create a diversion and give away some trinkets.

Next month: shiney beads

Google Store quiz

Now thats good advertising

[Brett_Tabke]

>good advertising

I know what you mean. Do we pick up the affiliate check, or do they send it to us?

[Knowles]

Guess they dont want me to play I got to the first question answered it but cant get it to check it!

[heini]

>affiliate
they might pitch up PR, just a little... isn't that the new currency? ;)

>Next month: shiney beads
good one...

[caine]

That took a while to load in IE, did a no-show in Opera.
by the time the questions come, i was bored.

[Macguru]

What? Google has a Quiz?!?

GoogleGuy! I am calling lawman! ;)

[seth_wilde]

"What? Google has a Quiz?!?"

And your not allowed to play :(

Do not enter this contest if you are not located in the United States.

You must be a legal resident of the United States and 18 years or older at the time of entry

[Giacomo]

Do not enter this contest if you are not located in the United States.

That's too bad... :(

GoogleGuy, what about a quiz with equally googley prizes for us Euro-geeks? ;)

[oilman]

or us Canucks?

[Macguru]

International contests (with some prizes at the end) are almost impossible to come by. Federal laws, I think...

[heini]

>International contests (with some prizes at the end) are almost impossible to come by

Hmm - what about this one: CSS-Design contest for ATW Alchemist [webmasterworld.com]

Open for all, with much better prices, and even a claim to fame...

[mivox]

Don't feel too bad Mac, the gizmo quiz is usually much more challenging that the Google Quiz was. The hardest part about it was waiting for the next question to load... ;)

[korkus2000]

The hardest part about it was waiting for the next question to load...

or avoiding frame busting web sites :(

>good one...

Bwwwaaahahahah! That is a good one. ...still chuckling.

[karyam]

Wooohooo, just finished the first one!

[GoogleGuy]

"GoogleGuy, what about a quiz with equally googley prizes for us Euro-geeks?"

Well, Giacomo, there's always the regular Google store. :)

[Chris_D]

The Google IP filter means that here in Australia - I have no idea what you guys are talking about.... Google aren't even displaying a quiz to us Aussies....

If Australia beats the USA in the Swimming at Yokohama - will you give us an 'Aussies only' quiz Googleguy???

[indigojo]

Chris_D you know as well as I do that Australia will beat the US in Yokohama, it's a forgone conclusion, mate ;)

[Sinner_G]

Is the quiz still there and I can't see because of IP? Would be nice if non-US people could at least take the quiz, even if we cannot win anything. :(

And if the aussies get a quiz, I want one for Switzerland if we beat the US guys at some skying competition ;).

[shelleycat]

And if the aussies get a quiz, I want one for Switzerland if we beat the US guys at some skying competition

Only if New Zealand gets one for beating the US at rugby ;)

I can't see the link anywhere but I'm not in the US either.

<edit> Oh, there's a link to it on the googlestore page.</edit>

[Woz]

GoogleGuy, do we get a bonus for pointing out puntuation mistakes in the questions?

Onya
