Saw A Google Billboard

More proof that Google has gone public:

Recently, I have been seeing billboards advertising Google cropping up around the Atlanta area. This marks the first time I've seen Google advertise anywhere.

Seen these in your town?

I think Yahoo has the best ads, but I never use yahoo and always use Google, hmmmÉ

Does make me wonder what will happen with Google being built in to some browsers when it becomes a public for profit biz, not that it isn't for profit now.

Nope, haven't see any billboards for Google, but they would have to really pop out to get my attention so they may be here I just haven't noticed.

More hype for them to run up their stock price so the owners can cash out a few million shares.

It makes sense for them to start advertising. They have investors to make happy and yahoo to compete with.
