Google today is the best thing ever

[corilannam]

I often lose hours of my day to Google, but today is shaping up to be worse than most.

Today is the 30th birthday or something of Pacman.

If you go to Google's homepage, you can PLAY PACMAN ON THE GOOGLE LOGO.

I know I'm easily amused in general, but come on, how awesome is that??

Sorry, reel_merlin, you'll have to get done tomorrow. Blame anna_zee for telling me about it.

OMG, SO fun!

[corilannam]

I think they've really outdone themselves this time!

AHHH THEY ATE ME. THEY ATE ME AGAIN.

[corilannam]

I'm getting eaten a lot. It's a little hard to maneuver. But I'm maneuvering around the big Google logo, which is just AWESOME. *g*

I was never much of a PacMan player when I was younger. But this could seriously convert me.

[corilannam]

This version of it is quite addicting. Good thing it'll be gone by tomorrow!

Thank you for alerting me to this before it was gone! :)

I KNOW, RIGHT?

THAT IS THE MOST AMAZING THING EVER.

I'm getting no work done tonight...

[corilannam.livejournal.com]

ISN'T IT?? My productivity just slowed way down.

Oh, and I was hunting for your email address last night -- would you have any time for Britpicking over the next couple of weeks? Feel free to say no! I know you're busy with your own fic and school and all that, but I wanted to ask since you were so fantastic the last round. :-)

[hanelissar.livejournal.com]

Aww, that's so sweet of you to say! No, that's absolutely fine, I would be happy to, Britpicking your fic was awesome fun last round! Sadly inbetween revision and life and a general utter halting to any sort of creative mindset my own fic has stuttered and died and only a major miracle would get it finished on time, but I am fully available for Britpicking!

Would you like me to re-message you my email address for when you want to send it over?

[corilannam.livejournal.com]

Oh, fabulous! I am thrilled you're willing to take it on again, though I am very sorry to hear that your own fic is in jeopardy. I was looking forward to it!

Yes, please do re-message me your email address, if you would be so kind. I switched email addresses myself a few weeks ago, and all my old mail is a mess. Thank you!

Should I tell you that if you insert a second coin you can control Ms Pac-Man with the W D S A keys while Pac-Man is controlled with the cursor keys?

[corilannam.livejournal.com]

That... is GENIUS.

[lanchid.livejournal.com]

Oh, and Google is leaving it up for 48 hours cause......they can.

[corilannam.livejournal.com]

I would love to be able to measure the worldwide drop in productivity occurring over those 48 hours.

Google is the devil. I've literally gotten nothing accomplished today. Nothing.
