Independence Day Celebrated With New Google Doodle

​

As tradition would have it, Google is once again celebrating July 4th — Independence Day — in the United States with a new doodle, or logo. This year, the company has posted a doodle which replicates the domino effect by eventually having a mini rocket launch, followed by raining stars when clicked.

It’s always interesting to see one of the world’s largest tech companies celebrate notable occasions in such a simple way — and they’ve been doing it for years, and the collection has surpassed 700 logos accumulated via Google’s international websites. Back in October of 2009, I interviewed Google’s Michael Lopez — web design lead and mastermind behind many doodles featured on the Google homepage, and learned some interesting information with regard to how Google doodles come about.

On a side note, you may have noticed that we too are in the Independence Day spirit, modifying our logo from the traditional gray and red.

 

Think this is the worst google landing page so far
