<p>I’m finding today’s google logo oddly mesmerizing…</p>

<p>does it mean anything or is it just fun?</p>

<p>As my D would say when she was younger–“Made you look!”</p>

<p>I wonder what it is that they are celebrating. Nothing noted on the Google Doodles page:</p>

<p>[Google</a> Doodles: 2010 July - September](<a href=“http://www.google.com/logos/]Google”>Google Doodles)</p>

<p>I found this about the logo: [Google</a> Ball Doodle Debate Reaches a Fever Pitch - Tech Talk - CBS News](<a href=“http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-501465_162-20015764-501465.html]Google”>http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-501465_162-20015764-501465.html)</p>

<p>Well, I had to look! And was fascinated that I could make the balls spring into motion by moving my mouse/cursor over them. But I’m sure you folks already knew that!</p>

<p>i see nothing :<</p>

7

<p>I’ve been playing with it all day!</p>

<p>i googled the google logo for today…</p>

<p>12 anniversary of opening their doors or some such thing. very fun!</p>

<p>I came across this article pondering the logo as well:</p>

<p>There are a coupl eof birthdays in my family this week - I thought Google made that log for them!</p>

<p>I liked the bucky ball one of a week or so ago.</p>

11

<p>I was just going to start a thread on this - it’s very irritating - waking me up from my online stupor.</p>

12

<p>I am addicted.</p>

13

<p>I like it too. I read an article one time about the person who creates those logos. it was interesting. They were saying how much they loved their job.</p>

14

<p>There was a piece on the people in the department that does the google logo doodles on a Sunday Morning not that long ago. Very interesting!</p>

<p>You can play the video segment.</p>

<p>The buckyball logo a few days ago was pretty cool, too.</p>

16

<p>I just went to Google out of curiosity and it looks like the normal Google logo. Wah…not seeing what you are talking about!</p>

17

<p>soozievt, try refreshing your screen or try using a different browser. It’s still up (9:55 central time)</p>

18

<p>I like it! And soozievt, it should be made up of a bunch of balls, that go flying when you scroll over them. I’d ask what you were doing, but it’s not easy to mess up google.com.</p>

19

<p>sooz - if you have the firefox google home page (just a hunch) it will show up as regular, you have to go to [url=&lt;a href=“http://www.google.com%5DGoogle%5B/url”&gt;http://www.google.com]Google[/url</a>]</p>

<p>OK, here’s why it must not work. My usual browser is Safari (I’m on a Mac). It is just normal Google on my Safari browser. But I went to Firefox and opened up Google and voila…very cool.</p>
