1. Swedish fish is the first (on the list) take-away snacks Google orders to its office.

2. Google celebrates Halloween every year in the office. The funniest dress-up was lava lamp in 2007, which I can’t visualize how it looks like though.

3. There are no restrictions on Googlers dress code in the office, in which pajama, ugly sweater and even super hero costume were on the records.

4. The youngest Google employee was 7 years old. (Not sure about this, the only thing searchable from the web was a 15 years old.

5. Google publishes variety of logos commemorating holidays and events. The first one on the books being a self-made “Burning Man” logo by the founders themselves.

Swiss professional pilot Yves Rossy, the world’s first man to fly with fitted jet fuel powered wings strapped to his back, flying during his first official demonstration. Rossy flew into the history books by crossing from France to Britain on only a jet powered wing, describing afterwards, how he felt like a bird over the English Channel.

Yves Rossy 49, touched down in a field on top of the white cliffs of Dover after completing the 35- kilometer journey over one of biggest shipping lanes.

He had nothing above him but four tanks of kerosene and nothing below him but the cold waters of the English Channel. But Yves Rossy leapt from a plane and into the record books on Friday, crossing the channel on a homemade jet-propelled wing.

Rossy jumped from the plane about 8,200 feet over Calais, France, blasting across the narrow body of water and deploying his parachute over the South Foreland lighthouse, delighting onlookers who dotted Dover’s famous white cliffs, cheering and waving as Rossy came into view.

Backed by a gentle breeze, Rossy crossed the Channel in 13 minutes, averaging 125 miles per hour. In a final flourish, he did a figure eight as he came over England, although the wind blew him away from his planned landing spot next to the lighthouse.

“It was perfect. Blue sky, sunny, no clouds, perfect conditions,” the Swiss pilot said after touching down in an adjacent field. He said he wanted to show, “it is possible to fly, a little bit, like a bird.”

There is no better way today to meet new and interesting potential mates than through an Internet dating site. However, with the hundreds of sites available out there, how can you choose one that is best? Here are six steps to help you choose a good online dating service:

Know your budget. Remember that most dating sites charge anywhere from $20 to $30 monthly as fees for their services. Some charge you one-time membership fees. Make sure you have already set a specific budget that you want to devote for online dating then for a site that fits your budget well. There are free online dating sites available. You can check them out as well if you are out of budget.

Ask friends and family for recommendations. If you use a search engine to look for a good online dating site, be ready to get overwhelmed. If you want to skip having to look through pages of dating sites available all over the Internet, try asking your friends instead. For sure, you will know someone or someone who knows someone who have tried online dating. Ask them to recommend you a good dating site which offers great services.

Consider joining specialized sites. You can opt to sign up for a specialized dating site. If you have unique situations or special interests, you can look around for dating services which are concentrated on people like you. There are sites which are for customized audiences, which can include those with specific racial, religious, political or sexual preferences, among others.

Online dating can really be amusing. A lot of people even find it workable and gratifying. In fact, there are more benefits other people do not realize unless they try online dating themselves.

However, not all online dating escapades produce positive results in the end. There are instances wherein the expectations sometimes go out of hand when executed in reality.

Take for example the case of a person who was lucky enough to find somebody he thinks is the right girl for him. He replied on her profile and when he received an answer from the girl, they started to communicate frequently.

What happens on their online dating is a series of continuous communication, exchanging messages, chatting continuously, and spending hours over the phone.

Because of the instant chemistry that evolved each time they talk to each other, the guy had emotionally built up the possibility of having a true, and not virtual, relationship with the girl. That is why he decided to set up their first real date.

As they day came when they agreed to meet for lunch, everything seem to have crumbled into pieces. The girl appeared to be somewhat different what the guy had expected or recalled. What made the meeting even worse is that what used to be a cheerful, lively conversation they usually had whenever they talk on the phone or chat in the Internet suddenly becomes so stiff and strained.

It’s a question those who have not tried internet dating sites, and those who have used these online services are quick to praise and recommend to their friends. If you’re a friend and someone is recommending an on line dating service to you, or you’ve tried one and want to recommend it, then here is a list of common reasons why online dating services are great for everyone.

With our day in age, technology is the present and the future. More and more people are meeting and falling in love online. Today’s statistics show online dating to be just as popular, if not more popular in some areas, as traditional dating methods. And most on line dating services haven’t been in existence that long!

With the thousands and thousands of members joining daily and the number of individuals seeking to find love online increasing, it’s harder than ever to meet someone through more traditional methods! The record speaks for itself.

A good on line dating service is filled with hundreds, if not thousands of members, all searching for someone to meet. With that many available members all looking for love, it’s nearly impossible to not be able to find someone! Browsing through hundreds, if not thousands, of profiles is sure to turn up prospective matches even the pickiest people will like. If you have a friend who doesn’t seem to like anybody, give them a computer, a free trial and an hour and guaranteed they’ll see someone to their liking!

In todays modern lifestyle, people don’t have the spare time to concentrate their efforts on dating. People lead hectic lifestyles working for longer hours, going into gyms to keep fit and so on. There is hardly any time to go out and meet new people.

With the growing popularity of free dating sites, more and more people are realizing the benefits that it can bring in terms of meeting other singles. People are changing their attitudes towards online dating, with a more ‘Go for it’ attitude rather than ‘No way’. People are becoming more open-minded to dating events and dating websites. Online dating is no longer considered to be an act of desperation by people who haven’t found a long-term partner.

Online dating is all about meeting new people and making friends. You can make it an enjoyable experience by remembering a few simple pointers about the world of online dating. Most of the online dating sites offer messaging service to let daters contact each other. It is always better to be clear in words when drafting your messages. Sometimes words are interpreted in different ways, so try to be as clear as you can to avoid any misinterpretation.

Once you make an initial contact with someone, it is important to keep momentum going. You can ask questions to find out what is common in both of you. You can ask a couple of questions to give the recipient an incentive to respond to you. Always be positive in your responses. A singleton narrating his negative experiences in his relationships or other aspects of the life is the worst thing in dating.
