Google. Enterprise search technology bicycle missing

With so much talk around the security of our smartphones and gadgets electronic, here comes an unusual news about a phenomenon that is unfolding at Google headquarters in the US. The company is failing to contain or control an outbreak of misappropriation of bicycles available on its campus in Mountain View.

We know there is much to like for Google to innovate and bring the best possible working conditions for its employees and staff. An example of this was precisely the implementation of a completely free bicycle service in all its fields.

This idea was created to encourage sustainable mobility, the interaction between employees and full ownership of their fields by those to enjoy the daily.

Bike offered by Google for your campus

Well, despite this advice to starting a good idea, it happens that the ownership of bicycles has exceeded and enough that for which it was originally intended, against the will of Google itself.

Google bikes were investigated to Mexico

According to our sources, ranging up to the Wall Street Journal, Google's bikes have been used for much more than just Google employees. They are being used all over Mountain View.

There are reports of entire families to move in this mode of transport in its entirety using bikes Google. In some cases, become even bicycles that people use to travel daily to their own work in anything related to Google, or even on the move to competing companies.

Some figures show an estimate of up to 250 missing bikes in one week! No doubts that are incredible numbers and even the installation of GPS locators caught this outbreak. Through this tracking system, the company knows that there are bikes to go as far as Mexico!

Consequently, the company now has a group of people moving around the city in search of bicycles, to bring them back to the campus, to perform the function for which they were designed.

What do you think of this? I think the good use of bicycles as a means of transport, but this misappropriation thinks a little more. Would do the same if residisses in Mountain View?
