Google celebrates April Fool's day

Maybe some of you haven't seen yet, but if you go to Google right now, it says 'Topeka'. Right under it says "Learn about our NEW name". 

Google says that the mayor of Topeka, Kansas changed the citys name to Google and so to thank them, Google returned the favor and changed their name to Topeka. They wrote about it in their blog-http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2010/04/different-kind-of-company-name.html

Something I noticed is that its still called the Google blog, which to me points out that this is in fact an April Fool's joke and that their really not permanently changing their name to 'Topeka'. Not to mention that the day they "changed" it is April Fool's day. 

Thanks for the laugh, Google! Happy April Fool's Day everyone!
