Now here's a perk: We hear that Google's New York office gets local employees on the list of three clubs every weekend, so they don't have to wait in line with the bridge-and-tunnel crowd.

Most Googlers' idea a good time is exemplified by this month's hopelessly lame "Google Dance 2007" event at the Search Engine Strategies conference, pictured above. Know which clubs are on this week's list? Or spotted a Googler in the wild? Let us know.
