google's great
the first 10 prime consecutive numbers in e.com
how cool is google? i know i've talked about this a million times, but i just love them. this was the ad they placed at the tube stop in harvard square advertising for programmers and engineers to join the google team. there was no mention of google in the ad, only what you see above, but if you figure out the answer and go to the website, they ask for your resume. i'm definately working on that this afternoon.
they are just so clever and funny and cute. i love goooooogle!
update: i found what i think is the answer, but the website doesn't seem to be up. let me know if any of you are dorky enough to try to figure it out and actually get a link to a website. juliebutt...i have a feeling you are up to the challenge.

holy crap! i was way off!!! i was looking for 10 prime numbers in a row in e, not a 10 digit prime number.
and btw, i love google even more now for giving another problem. they are the coolest company in the world.

Though you've figured it out... perhaps after dinner :) And you were right, I am dorky enough too! I should tell my dad.

I see why we were confused... the ad actually reads : the first 10 digit prime found in consecutive digits of e. oh well :(
