JUEVES, EL OCHO DE OCTUBRE, DOS MIL NUEVE
This bar-coded Google 'logo' popped up on my browser today, a subtly autocratic air about it, especially after reading this staggering article in the New Yorker yesterday (only the abstract is available online). I guess I knew that Google is a powerful net intermediary, but I guess to see the actual monetary values puts its on a whole other level. On the lighter side, I'm reminded of a very funny Arj Barker skit about the smug attitude of the Google image search engine. It should be on you tube somewhere.
