Early Google Video Shows Mundane Office Birthday Celebrations

Way back in December of 1999, Google was able to fit all its employees into one room for their weekly “TGIF” meetings, hosted by Page and Brin. Watch as employees clad in jumpers that’ll make our own Sam Biddle weak at the knees celebrate an office birthday, and get out the silly string.

Skip to around 4 minutes to see the “fun” begin, and then console yourself that your office is probably heaps more fun than Google’s was back in ’99 (while trying to mentally block out images of Google’s offices now, chocolate fondue fountains, slides and all). [TechCrunch]
