In a nostalgic event, Google Inc has bought the garage address that has started the Google Empire rolling. Thanks to Google co-founders Larry
Page and Sergey Brin, their 8000 staff can now have free lunches every day after their famous fridge raiding days over at Susan Wojcicki's place (friend of Sergey’s girlfriend). Susan Wojcicki, now Google's vice-president of product management, sold the 177-square-metre home in nearby Menlo Park to the Mountain View-based company for an undisclosed sum. She had rented it out for US$1,700 per month last time because she wanted some help paying the mortgage.
Google did not reveal the address in case it became a hot tourist haunt but I have sources confirming it to be at 232 Santa Margarita Ave, Menlo Park, CA. I hope my wife can visit it as an addition to her recent Googleplex photo collection.
