Colo. city to woo Google with spacey love note
LONGMONT, Colo. — A Colorado city is planning to show Google just how much it hearts the Internet company.
Dozens of Longmont residents plan to use their bodies to spell out a love note to Google in the parking lot of Silver Creek High School on Friday.
They plan to form a red heart between the words “Longmont” and “Google,” which will be spelled out by about 82 cars. A DigitalGlobe satellite passing overhead between 12:27 and 12:29 p.m. Friday should be able to photograph the scene.
Organizers hope the photo will boost the chances that the Mountain View, California-based company will choose Longmont over thousands of other cities to test a speedy Internet service.
