This was a blog that really caught my eye when I saw it.  Google has revealed a top secret lab located in a discrete location in the bay area, known as Google X.  It's been in order since 2005, but Google has kept it a secret.  But it is no longer a secret, as the company itself showed its existence.  In these labs, they are working on "ground-breaking projects" according to one official.

Youtube Worldwide

A spokesperson for Google dropped a very interesting stat yesterday.  Youtube, a  Google product, has an audience of 70% out of the country.  Originally created for our country, it became so popular that it became a national phenomenon.  It has become so popular that more people in other countries watch it more than in ours.
