They freaking registered their own TLD. That's awesome. Talk about dedication.

Hahaha that's amazing

 

[andylawcc]

well, they probably will have some use of .google down the road.

 

[GagHalfrunt]

What does it cost to do that?

Nevermind, googled it.

$185,000

I searched my username and saw that even the thumbnails for my YouTube channel videos were mirror-flipped.

I like that on my iPhone, the top banner advertising the Google app is also backwards (;

I guess that is the only ad on com.google. I read it is otherwise ad-free.

 

[Red Squirrel]

Yeah it's awesome that even pictures are backwards lol. If people in Australia look at this, I wonder if it looks normal.

it should be: "moc.elgooG"
Am I OCD?

For the joke, yeah. But, I think they're going to get a bit more use out of the $185,000 dot google.
