A few days ago, Google launched a new web page and even if the company didn't present the site, it was obvious it was created to celebrate the upcoming cricket event. As I said at that time, the 2007 ICC Cricket World Cup will take place in the West Indies from March 13 to April 28 and will introduce 51 matches played by teams from every corner of the world. Today, Google finally presented the new page, sustaining the employees are really looking forward to the start of the World Cup because "everyone has an opinion on cricket". As I said at the time when the Google Cricket page was released, it contains numerous services designed by the search giant able to help the users promote the tournament. Besides orkut, blogs and news, Google added gadget support to allow clients to customize their homepages with latest news and information concerning the World Cup. In the recent period, Google started a powerful campaign to promote these tiny gadgets, adding support in other products also designed by the search giant such as Google Desktop. "Talk cricket on Orkut: Cricket discussions that started in the elevator can spill over to the Orkut network. Especially this season, in association with us, cricket expert and former Indian cricket captain Krish Srikkanth has created his own community on Orkut to interact with cricket lovers, debate the latest happenings and just share cricket views. Get cricket scores & news: If work or school are getting in the way of your cricket enjoyment, keep up to date with match scores and World Cup cricket news by personalizing your Google homepage with the latest cricket gadgets," Sadeesh Kumar Duraisamy, Software Engineer, sustained on the blog.
