What is google UK?
It has automatically determined you are from UK from your IP address. Your IP address contains digits that show your ISP (internet service provider [e.g. Tiscali, Aol, Wanadoo].





*EDIT*


Who thumbed this down!? This is something that Google did to me when I went to Google.com and I discovered it was because of my IP address.





He asked why it was that Google redirected him from .com to co.uk, not JUST what is Google.co.uk!
Reply:google uk is a search engine for the UK, used to locate information on the net.


to change the language, search 'google' and the country you want, and then it should be in the language you want.


:D

Reply:lmao,,, thats funny stuff rigth there :P





uhhhh, google uk is the "uk" version of google, as in "united kingdom" version,,,, its kinda like "yahoo answers - singapore"...





i would say its probably a proxy issue, did u change any proxy type settings anywhere ?, sometimes proxies are forced on someone on work related computers and stuff...





the only other cause's i can think of are...


1.) you live in the UK


2.) you have recently "moved" to the UK


3.) you secretly like the UK and your computer is smart


4.) you broke your internet

EDIT: i think the thumbs down are just cause he's wanting to resolve the issue more than he's wanting to know "what" it is, and the answers are just tellin him what it is without helping fix the problem...
