Somehow that video was linked from the official Google Video newsletter & blog:

I don't think it's Matt Cutts, you can't see much on that video but there's no beard!

Does anyone know what's Google Borg? There are a lot of mentions on Treadwatch.

Maybe taking over everything. If I remember right the borg in star treck wanted to take over the entire universe or something like that.
