    i think it's for europe..
    they were searching for the right place, and found a place near Namur in Belgium, somewhere next to a Energie company.. to guarantee a good energie network, they will use glassphyper networks etc.. and will use the lake near their newly office for cooling the systems..

    Budget: ~€200,000,000

    There was a press conference this morning and it is in the news on radio and TV and in all Belgian newspapers.

    Check Belgian Google News in French.

    I would love to work for Google, they are considered the number #1 company in the world to work for. Maybe you should apply for a job, they will likely be having a few openings.
