I introduced Tim and Kellen to the Harlem Shake yesterday, which then led to us all scouring YouTube to find the dozens of lunatics taking part in the latest internet craze. It seems people in the Google office couldn’t resist getting in on the viral video movement as well. No one here may actually be doing the actual Harlem Shake dance move, but if you want to see some of the Google team going nuts infront of their iconic Android statues, you can’t pass up this video.

Typically when a new Android statue arrives on Google’s campus, it’s coupled with an official announcement of the new version of Android. We’ve seen the Jelly Bean statue as it arrives, the Ice Cream Sandwich, Honeycomb, Gingerbread, and Froyo statues too, all around the time that the Android team drops new code on us. Today’s statue included no such party, though the Android community manager that posted it sure teased the hell out of us. 

The above pictured was posted to G+ this afternoon with the quote “A new version of Android has been released!” So not fair.

As you can see, the statue is of Bugdroid as a fully chromed out beast. Does that mean that Chrome and Android are finally joining forces! Uhhh, probably not, at least for now. It’s more than likely just a really cool metal Android statue that we all wish was on our front lawn. Google is a sneaky bunch, though, so who knows what the future may bring.

It’s attached to building 45 if you are in the neighborhood and want to check it out.

Update:  The picture from earlier was actually of the Android team assembling the statue. It has now been completed and is pictured above.

There you go, folks. It doesn’t get more official than this. The Jelly Bean “statue” has arrived on the Google campus. Get ready for tomorrow.

And would you look at that…  

The Ice Cream Sandwich statue has arrived at Google’s headquarters within minutes of the announcement of their Hong Kong unveiling. You can’t get any more official.

And Gingerbread the name is at least official.  Looks nice sitting next to the Froyo statue doesn’t it?

Release date now?

OK, this story is just too damn funny to not write about.  While TechCrunch was breaking the news on their blog this morning that Android 2.2 would include the ability to tether and use your phone as a wifi hotspot, they were also sending an employee over to the Google campus for a photo session.  There was a rumor flying around that the new Froyo statue had arrived and the pictures of this beast needed to be released to the world!

Of course, Google employees stormed outside and threatened to call security and the photoshoot abruptly came to an end.  Still, they captured a few pics of the new Froyo statue…

What’s makes this even more hilarious is the fact that some random guy made this video showing off the statue on Youtube…
