Google Hires Goat to Mow The Lawn

Okay by my heading you may be thinking that what the heck have i got to say well i have got to say about Google one of the world's most biggest search engines one of the biggest company in the world hires goat to mow their lawn.Although I could believe that they could have bought the latest technology but instead the persisted to hire goats.
According to one of the employ at Google:--
"At our Mountain View headquarters, we have some fields that we need to mow occasionally to clear weeds and brush to reduce fire hazard"
If we further continue to read
the latest entry on the official Google blog it says:--
"This spring we decided to take a low-carbon approach: Instead of using noisy mowers that run on gasoline and pollute the air, we've rented some goats from California Grazing to do the job for us (we're not 'kidding')."

Despite the horrible pun, Google's plan seems sound. A team of 200 goats, a single border collie for herding and a week of idle time is all it takes to keep the company's grounds green and nicely coiffed.

Of course, that presumes none of Google's employees are now spending their days attempting to spook the goats into fainting. Coding search engines and webmail servers is fun, but terrifying adorable, demon-eyed livestock is an irresistible temptation.

And even though Google announced an unlocked Android G1 around the 2008 holidays, people still preferred the iPhone 3G. Gizmodo has uncovered some leaked photos of a new handset which appear to be quite authentic. The first thing you would notice here is its shiny plastic finish, which is very much welcoming from the pale gray look on G1. Also this time around there is not physical keyboard present, which is a little disappointing. Though the touchscreen is large, but we know the current Android interface had some issues. The back side has a new surprise A 3.2 Mega Pixel camera, though even mid range phones for vendors like Nokia boast a 5.0 Mega Pixel camera these days. What would be interesting is the video capabilities of the G2 (if there are any). The current rumors suggest that this handset would hit the shelves...
