Google's Plans Hacked!

Google Master Plan is now public

Google Master Plan is a whiteboard where company's employees write things that were done and the to-do list. It's obvious that this element is very important because it can reveal the company's plans for the next future.

The latest Master Plan was a year old so the employees decided to delete it after they took photos to save the most important aspects. Of course, these images were made public, so they are available for everybody.

Chris DiBona, a Google employee, confirmed and posted a message on his blog to offer more details. "As was noted by some folks online, we erased the old master plan. It was a year or more old, and I thought it was becoming crufty, so I proposed we erase it. People asked if we could take some photos before doing so, but everyone thought it was time, provided we had some food/champagne. We ordered the food and had an erasing party," he said.

DiBona also provided a link to allow you to view the pictures, all the photos being published on PicasaWeb service.

It seems that the first blog that published these pictures was Undergoogle Blog, saying that "Google's master Plan had been erased but the Undergoogle blog kept a high resolution picture of it for you. Take a look and enjoy the craziest plans from their engineers in the complete version of the tech world's most famous whiteboard." The picture is available here.
