I'm a Noogler

[pphaneuf]

So I'm now what they call a "Noogler", in Google lingo. They use real strong stuff for their brainwashing (and I worked with apenwarr!). This is, presumably, so they can stuff my head with the million things I have to figure out merely about the simple fact of working there.

I can't say much, other than it's awesome, that I'll be working on Safe Browsing, that my only hope of not becoming desperately fat is that I will not be working on a "real" Google office (until they "fix" that) and that, every day, millions of people search on Google for information (it's true!).

Steve Yegge's got it right, though. I feel a bit like a fraud, getting to work in such a wonderful environment, surrounded by über-smart people, who, it is only a matter of time, are eventually going to discover that I'm Just Some Guy and ditch me.

I should go to sleep now, they're going to put more things in my head tomorrow.
