This space isn’t dead, The updates has been really slow this month. Some office work stuff is keeping me busy this month. Anyways to celebrate the 30th anniversary of classic video Game Pacman, Google has its first interactive doodle – a Pac man game that Web users can play straight from the Google’s home page. When I first opened its home page today, I figured out that there is some annoying noise coming out, and to figure out what was causing this noise, I had to close the Google tab to make it shut.A mute button on the screen, for that tab only, would have been enough, but I can't mute my computer when I need to listen other music from the system. You can’t buy publicity like this. Front page on Digg, front page on reddit, mentioned on NPR, front page on Google news, covered by ABC news, fortune, CNET, They just killed the productivity of every other company with internet access on the planet for the day. It would definitely have all IT managers block Google homepage from work. Coming to the technical side of it, This is apparently Javascript + HTML4. View background image shows the sprite layout. Insert coin twice gives two player mode.
Update: Google is making it’s Google Pac-Man game permanent here. If you double-click on Insert Coin you get Ms. Pac-Man.
