I thought Waterloo was in Belgium?

http://local.google.com/local?f=q&hl=en&q=waterloo,+belgium&ll=50.687758,4.630737&spn=1.684434,4.680176

I'm sorry though Belgium is still non existent on Google Maps.

This is because the rim technologies come out from waterloo. Rememeber that google recently bought out a same company here waterloo/london!!

I think they will establish the next gen wireless r$d center here.

Googs is getting into the voip space soon!!

They did one on my campus (UK) as well. It was really really bad – hugely uninsipring, presenting info that any teenager with a passing knowledge of the internet had already ('we have many servers' 'we have maps' 'we do desktop search')...they can't hire on reputation alone IMO, they need to do something more exciting at their recruitment gigs if they want to attract good people!
