This has been discussed in another thread my friend Google is now Googe On the other hand, yes it is a very creative design.
When I first glanced at it I read it as Gooey, and thought they'd gone soft for valantines day. It was only on a closer look I noticed the g and the L. Nice logo Yahoo, has a fun gif, dogpiles is nice, what happened with MSN? have they no heart?
Well, as I originally said - we are giving google some free publicity (so it is a winning design). It can be interpreted either as missing an L or the green bit (as I said it aka the stalk) would be the L. Either way, google brand gains a bit more free stuff from webmasters
“Googe is a sexual act originating in the Amazon rainforest. It is where the man wraps his legs around a womans face and googe’s like a bad badger. It is now used as an exclamation of hornyness or used as a term instead of ****, or also can be used as an expression deep hatred. Eg, I ****ing want to googe ya mam†See http://london-seo.com/googe/80/ (or http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=googe)

I understand you are the Corporate Communications Co-ordinator for Google. Well, I have a question and I was hoping you could answer it for me. I am a frequent Google user, and I just clicked on to the site and noticed that your banner today (Valentine's day) is an image of a chocolate-covered strawberry. Well, to me, it looks like it says Googe, not Google. I was a bit confused, so I showed it to some of my friends and colleagues, and they agreed with me. So I was wondering, was the stalk on the strawberry meant to be an L, or did somebody just forget it altogether? It's not very clear. I would really appreciate your feedback. Best regards, S***** And the answer is...

This is a new and edgy design and i think it looks fab - i hope you agree L
My friend before posting this I did a search and I didn't found anything like that... and the link you gave me is broken... I can't see the exact hour of post...
I think the L is stuck in the strawberry that is witting the G with the chocolate. Orrr is that Goggles little love name for themselves.. like smoochie googe. idk I think the l is in the strawberry
