funny google

i found some things about google that i feel are humorous:

Go to Google Maps. Zoom all the way out so you see most of the continent of North America. Scroll all the way around the globe to the right or left (click on one side of the map and drag to the other)...looks like Google thinks that North America is the only continent on the globe. Hehe. ;)

The other thing I found out is that Google is available in the following languages:
*Elmer Fudd - example: "Youw seawch - ... - did not match any documents. Oh, dat scwewy wabbit!" (when I went to preferences to change to another language there were no 'R' or 'L' entries in the list of languages, they were down with the 'W's, eg. "Watin, Watvian, Womanian, Wussian")
*Klingon - example: "Danej 'ach mu'vam ngaS pagh Daq" - any Trekkie want to translate that?
*A strange language labeled as: "Bork, Bork, Bork" a search that returned no results said this: "Yuoor seerch - ... - deed nut metch uny ducooments. Um gesh dee bork, bork!" and "Try deefffferent keyvurds. Um gesh dee bork, bork!" ...hmmm...
*Pig-latin: "Ouryay earchsay - ... - idday otnay atchmay anyay ocudayentsmay" ...my sister and i used to speak that all the time when we were idskay (kids). that was fun :)
*Esperanto, which is a cool language to know about. Read about it here.
*Hacker (aka 'Leet') - "j00|2 534|2(|-| - ... - c|1c| |\|07 |\/|4+(|-| 4|\|y c|0(V|\/|3|\|+5. 5|-|17!!!!"

Check it out yourself:
Go to google
Click on "Preferences" and choose a fun language!
I'm gonna keep mine at "Elmer Fudd" for a while. :)
