  1. Here is what one person has to say:

    And from the Willamette Weekly:

    Interesting, I guess.

      interesting take on Google moving to town…. I think it was all about cheap electricity so I hope the town got some jobs out of it.

  2. I think I would have gone in and gotten some of those FREE Doritos or Lays chips..and then done some sneaky sluething! Or if you paid the 50 cents for TreeTop juices, then you should be able to just ask what the heck the Google sign is all about!

    • Jeff says:

      do they have Apple, Grape, Raspberry or fruit punch Coke where you are Dorinda?

      Hmm..can you enjoy your Lays Dorito’s and a coke on a treetop too?

      I am gonna googleville it and find out.

      • Dorinda from Mentor, Oh. says:

        No Coke..Pespi. Pepsi, Pepsi, Cheesebugga. : )

        We have lime Coke, Cherry Coke and Vanilla Coke here. At least that I’m aware of.

    Well, Jeff, I googled Googleville and found this .. http://googlified.com/welcome-to-the-googleville/

  4. Candice in Alabama says:

    Hmmmm…..did Googleville come to fruition?

    Did someone at Google say, where can we build a data center PLUS have cheap electricity AND beautiful scenery AND FREE Doritos and Lays Chips?

  5. John in MI says:

    If you look at Karin’s Googleville link, you’ll see that Doritos used to be $.25; I guess no one was buying them, so they had to start giving them away!

  6. Thomas says:

    You should have clicked the sign to see if it took you directly into the town.

    This makes me think. How would I contact Matt.? I used to live in Portand,and I see by the map that he will walking down the Street I lived on. I’m curious if the house is still there or if something else might have taken it’s place.

    • Dorinda from Mentor, Oh. says:

      At the top of the home page he has his email there. Send him an email and ask him. He’ll answer you back and then you’ll know.

  10. Dorinda from Mentor, Oh. says:
