Happy Valentines Day from Google (And Blizz too!)

Roes are red
Violets are blue
Google’s creative
on Valentines too…

I realized I was an “Internet junkie” when I found myself logging onto Google’s homepage this morning just to see the new Valentine’s Day logo! For those of you who use the Internet on a regular basis, you’ve probably noticed how Google changes its logo for major holidays and big events. I find this oddly amusing, and thought I’d share some fun facts I learned.
The Google holiday logos, also known as “Google Doodles” are created by Dennis Hwang. Hwang “designed his first logo for Google in honor of Bastille Day (a national French holiday), July 14, 2000, and has been designing the specialty logos ever since.” To view some of his previous work, check out the Google logo museum. I’ll be looking forward to the St. Patty’s Day logo!
