In 2008, Google launched the Google German Testing blog at googletesting-de.blogspot.com. If you visit the German Testing Blog today, you will see it has a totally irrelevant and off topic, hack-like look.

Here is a picture:

Google German Testing Blog

Google announced it's launch on February 02, 2008 at the Google English Testing Blog, saying:

For those German-speaking folks among our readers of this English Google Testing Blog we have exciting news: We have just launched the German Testing Blog!

Thing is, they had one post on that blog and that was it. So maybe the blog elapsed and someone took it over and it wasn't hacked?
