Well you should focus on putting the stuff that's most relevant first, either by editing your "standard" resume or (if you want it to strictly be date-ordered) by including a cover letter that contains that information.
No offense, but I think it's common-sense that people will start reading from the beginning of the document, and a really popular company like Google is going to have at least hundreds of resumes to scan.
I thought it looks odd to put side projects first in a resume. I know I would be confused if I saw a resume like that. It's not like eduction and work experience are irrelevant.
