    8. Employees are encouraged to use 20% of their time working on their own projects. Google News, Orkut are both examples of projects that grew from this working model.

    Lol :) because by doing this your not really working on your own projects your working for google still, it still contributes to their world.

    I bet they wouldn't give you 20% of their time to go home and wait for the gas man to arrive. :p

    This is not exactly true. Quote from Wikipedia:

    "The founders originally were keen to acquire the domain "Googol.com". It was registered to a local Silicon Valley engineer (Tim Beauchamp) who was using it as a site for math and astronomy. He did not want to relinquish the domain at the time."

    And a follow up note: A googol is 1 followed by one hundred zeros. A googolplex is 1 followed by one googol zeros.

    Google might be the largest employer of the world if Adsense publishers are taken into account.
