    That's big of Google~
    Feel so sorry for Haiti people, the huge earth quale in China in 2008 was so horrible, and this one is even worse.

    Alright... Tiger Woods is only donating in an effort to save his image, and Sandra Bullock is only donating to save her washed up career. Bad examples mate :p
    Google is smart, $1 Million is pretty cheap for worldwide advertising.

    Yeah I agree, I think Google should be donating more then this small amount. To me and you this is a lot of money but, to Google this is nothing in comparison to other people.

    Google is a great model not for us webmasters but also other people. Google thank you for helping the people in Haiti.
