ok, so google goes out of its way to replace its doodle with a 30 year anniversary message to all pac man lovers! and might i say its probably the most addictive piece of sofware i have had the pleasure of using (at the expense of my revision) As i walked across one computer cluster in the university of Leeds, I could have mistaken the doodle on every screen for an alien attack where every victim was glued onto the screen. The scene was the same all the way to the library. Google had taken over. “Reporting from South Africa,” writes Monitor reader Thuto. “Office productivity down by 60%, bandwidth usage down by 80%, only page visited, www.google.com.” and guess what, in the university of Leeds Edward Boyle Library, I obtained the following statistics. Learning activity down by 70%, bandwidth usage down by 80%, only page visited, www.google.com.

Some people have been reported to have smashed their computers after the sound drowned their senses, they claim that pac-man followed them wherever they went!! one angry pac-man addict was quoted saying “next time, build a mute button into it!”

All I have to say is that, i have personally spent endless hours trying to complete this game, it is insanely addictive. now, what will google do next? what about an anniversary for Tetris? neat idea!
