"Oops! That wasn't supposed to happen! © Google 2007"
Okay, I'll admit it: 1389, a/k/a the editor of this blog, is the worst Internet junkie on the planet. Among other things, I have upwards of thirty feeds coming into my Google Reader account alone, and when I'm out somewhere, I pick them up on my cellphone with Google Reader Mobile, which is currently in beta test.
Normally, Google Reader Mobile works surprisingly well, even on a cellphone screen not much bigger than a postage stamp.
This past Friday, I clicked on a feed link and got the mysterious message shown in the header of this blog entry.
Obviously, this is not the most helpful error message - neither for the tech support staffer nor for the end user. If any of you happen to know anything about this message, please post a comment here!
More to the point: my attention was especially drawn to the fact that Google included a copyright notice in a message that is such a painfully ironic summation of the human condition.
After all, who among us has not said, or at least thought, the same thing?
