.....and then go on to read about their project Virgle, a plan between Google and Virgin to populate Mars.

(I tried to post a link to it, but it wasn't accepted!)

Mine says "Topeka" in their colors. Is mine different or am I not catching on?
I think I'm missing something!

You're missing something! OK, just click on the phrase below the Topeka.

Now I feel "all up to speed!"

I clicked on classic page and found it!
Leave it to Google Topeka, to do it up bigtime! LOL

I never noticed that sign-in stuff before. I'm famous for noticing what I wanted and not bother looking at the rest of the page. Always taking the short cuts! That must be how I lost all those wonderful Home Page gadgets I use to have....... I don't even know what phase of the moon is showing up at night! lol

Or just click on the word TOPEKA.

Here's a link to the Virgle plan

Here's the explanation for why Topeka:

NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- In the rich tradition of April Fool's Day pranks, Google has renamed itself after Topeka, Kan., accompanied by an absurd explanation from the company's chief.

On Thursday morning, the company's home page was titled "Topeka" instead of "Google," although still in its distinctive blue-red-yellow-green font.

How Google, er, Topeka's home page looked Thursday morning.
Why? Because in March, Topeka Mayor Bill Bunten announced that he was informally changing the name of his town to "Google," just for one month. He told CNN that he was doing it for "fun." This is Google's tit-for-tat explanation, according to its official blog, posted by CEO Eric Schmidt.

"Whatever the outcome, the conclusion is clear: we aren't in Google anymore," blogs Schmidt.

April Fool's Day carries a long tradition for pranks and punks, which affect every aspect of life, from the school yard to the board room. Since the advent of the Internet, companies and individuals have gotten inundated with funky e-mails making wild claims, on this day in particular.

Oh shoot - you guys already explained that by saying to click on the link below the image. Sorry.

ha ha ha ha.... nice April fools!
