Room to grow




Jim Reese took these shots of Google shortly after the move to 2400 Bayshore Parkway from downtown Mt. View. Yes, the desks were wooden doors mounted on metal sawhorses. They had two ergonomically correct settings: "nose bleed" and "knee knocker." No expense was spared in the early days, a tradition that never really changed much.

I've always wanted a desk made out of a door and two short filing cabinets. Plenty of room to leave paper lying around until I get fed up with it and stick it into a drawer somewhere
