Happy Birthday Google!

If your company name becomes a verb, you must have done something good!

When I went online this morning, the first thing I noticed was the wonderful Google logo, celebrating their 10th birthday.

As Google is my homepage, that logo is the first thing I see every day and through the years I noticed the special logos celebrating Holidays and special events. Today there was a link to the history of Google and I learned that the special logos are called doodles, created by Dennis Hwang. Wow is all I can say. Very creative, considering the limited space and the fact that the logo must be recognizable as “Google”.

I’ve collected some of my favourites, and as it’s hard to choose, this post will be looong :p

All images belong to Google and credit goes to the awesome artist Dennis Whang. If you go to the 10th Anniversary page, there’s a timeline, click the logo above the first timeline and you’ll get a popup with a whole bunch of them.

In random order (hover over the image to see the event and date):

And last but by no means least: Happy Fall Ya’ll!
