Google’s Photo Tour of Their Sprawling Data Centers

Google is hosting a website that covers “where the internet lives,” showing really beautiful images of the data center and folks that make the world’s most popular search engine tick. It’s a gorgeous site that looks very Windows 8-ish, and the pictures do a fantastic job of capturing the people and places that make your life as easy as you have become accustomed.

Update: We’ve recently stumbled upon a Youtube video that was posted by Google today showcasing one of their data centers. Enjoy.

Interesting! Some are fakes! Well according to Reddit.
E.g. http://www.google.com/about/datacenters/gallery/#/tech/12
Both sides are identically symmetrical, even the missing gaps.

I wish they built Data Centers in abandoned buildings in these smaller towns. Its rad they are creating jobs, and it would be even cooler to have the buildings re-purposed.
