Queen Elizabeth II and her husband Prince Philip paid a visit to Internet search giant Google’s British headquarters in central London on Thursday according to LONDON (AFP).
To mark the event Google changed its famous “Google doodle” — the way in which the company’s name is displayed, on its British web site to incorporate the queen’s profile as the second G, with a crown atop the E.
The royal couple met with software developers, senior managers and other staff at Google’s offices. They were later reduced to laughter when shown a clip of a baby laughing on YouTube, which is owned by Google.
“She did seem very very interested in everything going on,” said Nikesh Arora, president of Google Europe, Middle East and Africa, who took the Queen on her tour of the company.
“She has used You Tube and has her own Royal Channel and understands what our products are about.”
Nothing like sucking up Google. Wonder if they got the royal seal as the preferred search engine. Now THAT would be a coup! BTW, the changes look good Frank.
Thanks Cathy I appreciate that. Tooth pain all gone, but I lost it as it was way bad to do a root canal :)
Hey, where’s A.A.? Did she have a toothache too?! :)
