Google co-founder to marry on a private island

Wow! Google has some serious money.

Google co-founder Larry Page is set to marry his girlfriend, Lucy Southworth, this weekend on a tiny private island in the Caribbean, US media reports say.

Six hundred guests are reportedly due to attend the ceremony on Necker Island in the British Virgin Islands, owned by the best man, Sir Richard Branson.

Ms Southworth is a doctoral student at Stanford University in California.

Mr Page, who has an estimated fortune of $18.5bn (£9bn), co-founded search giant Google with Sergey Brin in 1998.

Since listing in August 2004 shares in the firm have risen sevenfold and it is now valued at over $220bn (£108bn).

Mr Brin, who is the joint fifth-richest person in the US along with Mr Page, got married in the Bahamas earlier this year.

Mr Page, 34 and Ms Southworth, 27, have reportedly been dating for over year. It is not known if they have signed a pre-nuptial agreement.

More on Google's street level views

OK, here is what I don't get. Why in the world would the people at Google and the people who work at the company taking the pictures for Google, think that you actually desire to see a woman in a truck with her underwear exposed when you are looking for the address of a museum? Wouldn't they think that user would be more interested in what the actual building looked like instead of what the woman's underwear looked like? Doesn't it make sense that the user would be expecting something different from what they are showing? What kind of business is Google running? A peep show?

Updated: They took the image down. You can still see it on Drudge.

Google's New Street Level View

Or should it be called, "Google's New Peeping Tom View" (or "How about we spy on the cat")? By now you've probably seen the images that Drudge has been linking to of Steve Jobs house or a man standing outside a strip club. If you want to avoid being put on the Internet, duck when you see this vehicle.
