Google’s a lot like college: you can stay on and get laid, or you can travel the world recruiting for the cause.

To add fuel to its fire, the search and ad giant is sending its more enlightened acolytes to far-off places — where they actually have to ask the natives whether they know what Google is — in order to find tomorrow’s brain children.

There’s something to tell the kids when you’re older: “After two years of organic buffet schmoozing, I hit Andhra Pradesh to find the ad algo junkies of tomorrow. It was fuckin’ awesome. I think I changed the world.”
