have to agree with laim, the H1-B process is super difficult and with america's latest unemployment problems will be even harder.

i'd suggest you re-apply to work in Ireland or one of the other offices, work for Google for a year or two there, THEN apply to transfer to mountain view. The recruiter you were talking with could even help with that. it would probably be an easier route from the visa point of view. the H1-B may really have been the only thing that prevented you from getting the job, in retrospect. given two candidates for a job, one requiring an H1-B, i bet the team would have had to concede for the local candidate just because the H1-B is so difficult!
