This strikes me as a bit pathetic.

Its most probably a badge for an automatic security system (the doors are locked unless a badge walks near a sensor).

lh3.google.com? Any relation to troutboard.com and the google platypus web file system?

Do you noticed that even Larry & Sergey need a badge to enter in the Googleplex? Hé hé ;-)

BTW, today is the birthday of a recent "xoogler" : Vanessa Fox!

Nice idea stefan2904 :-)

My question is this : When celebrities come to the Googleplex (for whatever reason), is the first thing said to them, "Hey, we've got this guy here that you have to take a picture with." ?

I don't think Bill Clinton or others likes to hang around in the lobby waiting for Chade-Meng, who they don't know, to arrive. If I understood the story right on the NYT then Meng gets tips days before the celebrity arrvies, and then positions himself in the lobby at the right time, a camera in hand, and then asks the celebrity for a snapshot (or whoever takes the celebrity around possibly introduces Meng as the crazy-cam guy :)).
