    Default Google changes its name to..... Topeka?!

    So I opened up Google Chrome, and instead of seeing Google above the search bar, I see, of all things, Topeka! I follow a link, and see that the city of Topeka, Kansas, has changed its name to Google Google, in turn, have done the same... changing their name to Topeka. Now, I'm sure there's money involved, or else this wouldn't have happened, but even then it's still just crazy.

    like all Scandinavians; if that wasn't true, then why go round the north sea trashing other people's countries?

    (in case anyone is wondering, that's a viking reference. and of course I do NOT believe that of all scandinavians)

    oh, and

    Is it a paradox or the threads that NO ONE want to see closed all get closed in the fastest and most effective way possible, and those thread who most people strike their ''CLOSE IT'' banner, have a frustrating tendency to stay open... 0.o
