Welcome to Topeka, Kansas
Scratch that.
Welcome to Google, Kansas

Amazingly, in respect to Google over the years, Topeka, Kansas has agreed to chan their name to Google, Kansas. We're not sure how much Google gave Topeka, but were sure it's a lot.

WOW!
I just learned that in respect to Kansas, Google is changing their name to Topeka. This is amazing sign of charity from Google! We're not sure if YouTube will be back to normal though, after the stupid change in layout.

This is Amazing and will change the lives of everyone. All the way to parents thinking Topeka is a porn search engine! Enjoy!

Guess I'm not seeing things then.
There's also been some kind of debate about having another capital named Youtube.

I'll change my name to youtube, and then they can have my old name.

Also, why does it still say "About GOOGLE" and "Google Search"

Topeka is trying to secure a broadband contract from Google. That is one reason why they (jokingly?) renamed the city. Well the mayor did. And it isn't really official.

Those parents have no respect for Kansas.

Now that Google is Topeka, it IS a porn search engine.

Topeka pulled that stunt a month ago to attract Google's attention. Google is bringing out Fiber internet and cities are bidding to get their hands on extremely fast internet. BTW, Topeka renamed itself ToPikachu ten years ago.

Thats pretty lame, but I guess its better than nothing.


Google has more than that. Lame you thought that was the only prank they played.

I have to agree. You seem to contradict yourself when your name is Google and you calling Google lame.

Were they trying to get the Japs to buy them?

Now when referring to porn we can say Topeka instead of Google, so it's safe to say around Nuns! And Parents.

I really doubt that they changed the names. It is just to silly to acctually be real.

They didn't. They jokingly did. Who in their right mind would rename a city as Google?

Lame.

I don't want my capital to be a website, and they'll have to rewrite all the Geography books.

It would be silly, and it would also cause outrage.
