A week ago, the folks at Google was investing $ 200 million in a wind farm in Texas, and now have returned to make another great investment. A couple of days ago, the search giant approved investment of no less than $ 1,000 million for the new company's headquarters will be located in the UK, more precisely in the heart of London. Google definitely has a lot of money, right?

The company's new headquarters, which will be completed around 2016, will consist of a building of approximately 92,000 square meters. As estimated, the building itself will cost about $ 1.6 billion dollars. Its construction will begin later this year.

Matt Britin, Google's vice president for North and Central Europe, has said that this is a major investment by the company. Eyes are focused on the UK, where computing and web were invented

No doubt good news for Google, for London and for the UK.
