When Google had first created it's logos, nobody had anticipated how popular and integral they would become to the Google search experience.
Nowadays, many users excitedly anticipate the release of each new doodle and some even collect them! But with it Now there are lot of people that are making collection of Google logos. And one thing is that Google has also made it's own website only for Google logos. Google logos is said "Google doodles"!
This is the best Doodle of Google that I like. This image is about 2 MB. you can see it in other window click on that:
Let I also say only Doodles instead of Google Logos! Doodles are known as the decorative changes that are made to the Google logo to celebrate holidays, anniversaries, and the lives of famous artists and scientists. Google has one excellent team that only made this doodles! The doodle team never fails to find artistic ways to celebrate these unique events. They never forget any event to make it unique containing Spring, Albert Einstein's birthday, or the 50th anniversary of understanding DNA. A group of Googlers regularly get together to decide the events and holidays that will receive doodles.
How did the idea for doodles originate?
In 1998, the concept of the doodle was born when Google founders Larry and Sergey played with the corporate logo to indicate their attendance at the Burning Man festival in the Nevada desert.
A stick figure drawing was placed behind the 2nd o in the word, Google and the revised logo was intended as a comical message to Google users that the founders were “out of office.” While the first doodle was relatively simple, the idea of decorating the company logo to celebrate notable events was well received by our users.
A year later in 2000, Larry and Sergey asked current webmaster Dennis Hwang, an intern at the time, to produce a doodle for Bastille Day. Pleased with the result, Dennis was then appointed Google’s chief doodler and doodles became a regular occurrence on the Google homepage.
In the beginning, the doodles tended to celebrate largely visible holidays; nowadays, doodles represent a wide array of events and anniversaries from the Olympics to the Mars Rover landing.
Let me tell you something about it's logos competition held by Google:
Doodle 4 Google is a competition open to K-12 students of U.S. schools to create their own Google doodle inspired by the theme, "If I Could Do Anything, I Would…".
At Google believe in thinking big and dreaming big, and Google can't think of anything more important than encouraging students to do the same. They are looking forward to what kind of creative visions kids will submit for what they would do in the world, if they could do anything. Some potential examples of this year's theme are:
If I Could Do Anything, I Would…
- …Figure out a cure for cancer
- …Build a movie theater on the moon
- …Be an underwater explorer
Google are delighted to encourage and celebrate the creativity of young people, and are excited to see the range of creative doodles that are submitted. And of course this type of activity will make more publicity of Google, But at other hand it's not necessary. Because I don't think that it will be a person who don't know about Google!! Google had 20,000 schools who participated in this year's contest and we received over 33,000 entries.
I would like to inform you that the prizes are of course not small. it's about $15,000. And National Winner for Doodle 4 Google in 2009 was Christin Engelberth, a sixth grader at Bernard Harris Middle School in San Antonio, Texas. She titled her doodle "A New Beginning" to express her wish that "out of the current crisis, discoveries will be found to help the Earth prosper once more."
