Again with the math

Google, in a bid to recruit really smart people to work for them, has started a billboard campaign that is a series of puzzles. Here's how it works. The first billboard says {First 10-digit prime in consecutive digits of e}.com. You find this number, go to the website, and it shows you another puzzle and gives you a URL where you can enter your answer. And so on. If you solve all the puzzles, you eventually get to the Google website and are asked to submit a resume. Pretty cool, huh? (Via Slashdot)

On another note, it is weird how, ever since I started reading this Reimann hypothesis book, I am hearing about it (and analytic number theory) everywhere.
