Well, it's a rumor, but still.

Man, if this is true, Google rules just that much more. Naming something Trogdor automatically puts you on the "people that don't suck" list.

I can't believe you people are falling for it. Google is taking over the world, yet you all are downing Wal-Mart. By the time you realize Google's true intent, it's gonna be too late. I predict that date to be 26 April, 2009. Google will buy Wal-Mart, thus completing their world domination plans.

Trogdor burninates, and that's what this plan is about, to launch all the world's nuclear weapons for the purpose of eliminating all except for their chosen few, who will ride out the apocalypse in a bunker (which they are currently stocking with everything 1000 people will need for 100 years.

Or it's some new kinda thing that's gonna make the web cooler to use.

It's hard to say. :mrgreen:

My brother showed it to me on his Blackberry. I thought that it was pretty cool. Google gets better everyday. First it's Trogdor's birthday, then this.

Trogdor was a man...
I mean, he was an Ajax webpage editor!
But, actually, he was just a webpage editor!
But he was still TROGDOR!


Somehow, the lyrics just aren't as catchy.

It's because Google is on the internet. It's easier to accept and use something you can just make a few clicks to get to.

Anyways, Google gets a cool cookie for using Trogdor as the name for something.

i'd say fake. i mean, they have stories about Google Gulp, uncle sam google and "the secret behind the technology"

also, i noticed that nobody on that page said anything about a H*R reference.

I dunno... the idea that Google would make a web ediot seems plausible, but the Trogdor bit seems a tad sketchy if you ask me. *shrug*

You never know though. While it is just a rumor, some do come true.

Well... after the whole China thing, I think some people's faith was shaken. Of course, google telling the U.S. government to kiss off was kinda nice, but it will take many more positives to overshadow those few negatives.

...But let's be careful not to get this shuffled off to the Religion & Politics forum, please. *shrugs* But I digress. Actually, we all kinda digress. So, who wants to sign up for this thing, whatever it's codenamed? *raises hand*

No, you really don't. You can go back and look at any of your old posts and your new sig will show up there. Please don't make test posts.

And FYI, you can't use BMP images here. Try PNG or JPEG. And read the BBCode FAQ to get your formatting right.

ROFFLE.

It's probably just a coincidence, but it is, in fact an AWESOME coincidence.

Did you just ignore IJ? You don't need to make a new post! Just look at your old ones!
