Who knew it? Google has a sense of humor

Behind many applications , great applications such as google chrome, Gmail, google maps,adsense etc... and some other not so great applications like picasa and gtalk , and some miserable applications like google videos, google web accelerator (WTF!!!) , google checkout , google desktop(2004-2011) that imposed some serious security issues etc..
