James Lawson-Smith, who I thought worked at Google but I believe doesn't, posted a video of a Facebook employee being interviewed about their vending machines. Yea, it is an interview about vending machines, not about Facebook's social network.

James then wrote:

Why didn't Google think of this?

Google does, he was mocking Facebook. Google has had it for years. Google wasn't the first company to do this.

Too funny - not so search related but it made me laugh and sometimes, we all need a laugh.
