Flying Saucers


September 5th, 2009.

That was the date when the second "O" from the word Google was abducted by Aliens. Oh-no!

According to Wikipedia (my primary source of hard information) "Google issued a tweet on Twitter with the following cryptic sequence of numbers:

1.12.12 25.15.21.18 15 1.18.5 2.5.12.15.14.7 20.15 21.19

It is said to be a cipher for “all your ’O’ are belong to us.” (It's not the best grammatically, but not bad English for a space alien).


The cipher was based on a straight alpha-numeric translation:
1=a
2=b
3=c
etc.
At the same time, the www.google.com homepage graphic was updated show an UFO that is in the process of abducting the second ’O’ in Google.

Beware of flying saucers. Watch your Os today. This may go viral.

Cheerio!
