I recently discovered this weird channel on YouTube called Webdriver Torso. All this channel does is upload videos every few minutes with high pitched beeps and moving rectangles all over the screen. Sometimes it would write comments on their own videos but their comments don't seem to make any sense. Also, it's name. Why is it called "Webdriver Torso"?


What do you guys think it is? I would like to know, I'm really interested on this topic.

Why would YouTube do that? Isn't it rather unprofessional for a company to go around writing weird shit?


To be honest, I was expecting some big mystery behind this channel... Oh well. ╮(╯▽╰)╭

Google offices are pretty relaxed places. Some have ball pits where you can take a laptop and work.
In the last image is a pod designed specifically for napping in the workplace, and Google have a couple of those too. It plays 'soothing sounds' and tries to relax you into going to sleep. Although most places would punish someone for napping on the job, the idea here is that allowing short powernaps will improve workers morale and help them produce more in the end.

Well, they can afford to be. They make 60 billion dollars every year without having to do a whole lot and so they just employ extremely smart people to work on research projects.
