It's official:

Early last month the mayor of Topeka, Kansas stunned the world by announcing that his city was changing its name to Google. We’ve been wondering ever since how best to honor that moving gesture. Today we are pleased to announce that as of 1AM (Central Daylight Time) April 1st, Google has officially changed our name to Topeka.

I like the new name, as 'google' is just silly.

I don't mind googling myself every once and a while, but I like it better when others google me. It's more satisfying that way, I think.
