Sierpinski triangle? posted by dabitch at 1:51 AM on July 17, 2009
Oh, neat! At first I thought they had just shooped it in, but you can see the triforce there on Google's own archive. posted by cavalier at 1:53 AM on July 17, 2009
In other news, I just got my GoogleVoice invitation and holy shit I'm impressed. I can't think of a better way to stop telemarketing than a friendly "this call is recorded" before every pickup. posted by Avenger at 1:59 AM on July 17, 2009
Methinks someone is using the word "conspiracy" incorrectly. There is no cabal, and even if there were, it would not approve of easter eggs. posted by disillusioned at 2:35 AM on July 17, 2009
Yeah, well, the word “great” doesn't really fit, either.
It does seem to be a Triforce, however. posted by koeselitz at 2:38 AM on July 17, 2009
It seems that you're all missing the fact that it's an easter egg from Zelda; There's nothing cospiratorial, nor great about it; It's just a really awesomely geeky thing for Google to do. posted by tiaka at 2:45 AM on July 17, 2009
Make that Trilateral. I need more coffee. posted by exogenous at 7:24 AM on July 17, 2009
It is time to restore a forgotten conspiracy theory.
Obviously this is a sign for the Trilateral Commission which has secretly ruled the world for decades. Now that Google power extends world wide they are comfortable enough to start putting the Trilateral Commission symbol right on their front page. posted by eye of newt at 7:28 AM on July 17, 2009
As I slashed, boomeranged, and bombed my way through the original Zelda, I had the strangest feeling that there was something beneath the game. I felt like I was being trained or...programmed. And now I understand why there has been this growing need in me, like a whisper in the back of my mind, to work for Google. I must serve the G. All hails to the G.

I got googlevoiced today, too. Yay. We will all be assimilated googed. posted by theora55 at 7:51 AM on July 17, 2009
You fools! That's no triforce -- the artist's predilection for Zelda is just a cover. That symbol is obviously the logo for Cyberdyne Systems masquerading in a slightly different form! Judgment Day is coming... soon the G-800s will be stamping on our skulls with their big Chrome boots!
This is beautiful and amazing...as if I really needed another reason to love Google more, they throw in my Achilles' heel, references to Zelda. posted by nonmerci at 10:40 AM on July 17, 2009
