Challenge #4 - Google Blog

I'm catching back up with the Challenge now, starting with taking a look at Google Blog. Very interesting! Doing this challenge has reminded me of just how many things Google can do. And the great thing is that it applies to both my work and personal life. As I read through the Google Blog posts, I realized that this is probably the best way to keep myself up to speed on the new stuff Google comes up with. I enjoy reading the more "techie" posts, but I think the one that struck me the most was the post on 6/30/2009 about their involvements in Gay Pride Month celebrations around the country. It was refreshing to see such a dominant enterprise not only support this important diversity initiative, but also not shy away from publicizing their support. The post was a wonderful show of inclusion and made me respect Google in a different way. I'm very much looking forward to reading Google Blog on a regular basis; I've even added it to my Google Reader!
