We found this little guy at the bottom right of the Google Zeitgeist Home page. Too funny! You can see him in action for yourself at google.com/zeitgeist. Just roll over the color bars in the bottom right of the screen (music not included).
Christoph Arlington is Master Trickster of Search Kung-fu, Google Laffriots, and General Intarwebs Yuks at GoogleTricks.com. You can stalk him on Google+ and Twitter where his wit is even more razor-sharper (if that's even possible!). Since you asked, no, he wasn't born with an unholy infatuation with Google Tricks, but the world, as is its wont, turned him into a slightly mad, madly-obsessed Google voyeur. This site is his (physician-prescribed) steam-blowoff.
