Google's first ever Tweet.

Google's first ever tweet was as satisfyingly Geeky as we could expect from it. Its first tweet read..
I’m 01100110 01100101 01100101 01101100 01101001 01101110 01100111 00100000 01101100 01110101 01100011 01101011 01111001 00001010

The fist impression of this for anyone is some text encoded in binary, but when we decode this in Google's favorite language, ie, Python., we get the answer.
Okay, here's a hint for anyone not fluent in Binary- It is Google's trademarked line and you find it on its homepage too. Correct! It reads "I'm Feeling Lucky"
Basically this post was for those who didn't understand my Facebook status :P
