That one is full of programmers writing code (and at one time, they were advertising it as being "in Technology Square", which is a bit of a chuckle). The Google data centers (plural) in Atlanta are all well outside the Perimeter where space is cheap(er). The Google facility at 10th and West Peachtree is NOT a data center.

I always assumed they were over there. The big fiber ring that was put in during the Olympics probably makes it useful for them to have more than one location in the metro area. Anyone know if the other big Internet players (MSFT, YHOO, etc.) have big data facilities in the metro Atlanta area? AOL obviously does by virtue of CNN but I don't know of any others.

My guess is that is the reason they are hiring these folks. And I here tell they are building another massive data center over on the West side.
