Google's baby boom

As Thanksgiving approaches there's a heart-warming tale or two from Google to put everyone in the holiday mood.

Firstly a Google software engineer in Seattle, heavily gravid but officially not yet ready to pop, missed a day in the office. Concerned a colleague called her home, and was told that she was having contractions but that everything was fine and not to worry.

Fifteen minutes later however and everything was not fine. The friend got a call to get over thee fast as everything was happening in a rush. He headed straight for her house and got her in his car but before he could get out the driveway the baby popped into the world. Mother and new son are going fine.

In the second case one of Google's Mountain View office technical writers was driving into work when she was flagged over by a panic stricken dad to be. His wife was giving birth in the front seat of his SUV (think of the upholstery!) with "a grandmotherly sort had a panic-stricken look on her face and her hands out to catch the baby." She stayed and calmed down the dad and within ten minutes Google has witnessed its second premature birth.

A fun pair of tales, and something that would be useful for the young tots if they ever want to interview for the company.

"So, tell me about your first experience with Google...."
