It's been so many days since original Google logo has been replaced by stupid cartoons (puppets or whatever they are) from Sesame street. We don't even know Sesame street here is India, Pakistan (or Asia maybe). Google should keep this logo limited to America only. BTW there was no Google for Doodle for Diwali but for Sesame street ?
Check Out - http://www.sesamestreet.org/home you will noticed why this is so popular worldwide. Ya this is true that Google should have given same importance to Deepawali also.
A bit of a generalization there, isn't it. Even I had heard about http://www.sesameworkshop.org/aroundtheworld/india & seen the promos of Galli Galli Sim Sim when it was released for India. Sesame Street is broadcast in approximately 140 countries today, so I'm not sure why you believe it to be shown to America only. Google did honour Gandhi's birthday (http://mashable.com/2009/10/02/gandhi-web/) in it's logo worldwide and it appears that also did a Diwali logo last year - http://ychittaranjan.wordpress.com/2008/10/27/official-google-diwali-logo-2008/ <--check the links there for some fan creations as well which are quite good.
Oh .. I remember galli galli sim sim song, really hate it. But my point was - Sesame street, is it really that popular all around the world ? Google running a week long appreciation for it !
Yes it is. Approximately 140 countries that it is broadcasted in (localized & American versions). Educating children for 40 years with quite a balanced outlook and understanding. This is definately something we should be celebrating. I grew up in a country which did not have a TV station, yet even there we got tapes for overseas shows including Sesame street which gave a great insight to all kids how there was almost another world with different types of children, how they dressed and the messages portrayed in each show. Also, the week long appreciation may be a play on Sesame Street's counting. So Mr Gill, how many days has the Sesame Street logo been shown on Google 1 2 3 4 . . .
Cool down dude, i feel anger Lost the count after 3 (not good with maths) But the problem is for how many more days Google will keep showing these ?
Not sure where the anger sensing came in. I was actually smiling when typing in the last sentence with the counting. My guess would be that they would do the main characters for Sesame Street only and end it there.
Yes, Sesame Street has a great popularity in many countries because it is almost the only cartoon that displays frequently on television 20 years from now, as is the case now in the simpson.
there are so many muppets they all couldn't fit in the logo,so they're spreading it out. in celebrating the 40th birthday it's going to last 40 days. wouldn't that really piss you off?
Except that sesame streets is for childrens and The Simpsons is for adults by the way there's an old Arabic version of this show called (Eftah ya Simsim) i believe this is a general celebration not a US thing only
is that their version of Snuffleupagus? when i watched the show it was when only big bird could see him.
loooooool no we don't have Arabic version for that (as far as i knew back when i was a kid) this is Sesame Street Arabic version images: http://images.google.com.kw/images?...ح+يا+سمسم&btnG=Search+images&aq=f&oq=&start=0
The sesame street stuff has officially gotten annoying - I miss just seeing a plain old Google logo. I feel like I have to lean toward my monitor or someone will think I'm fooling around on the internet at work
I think Google does the more important ones however sesame street's logo has been there for a few days now as opposed to the others that stay for a day or two.
Did the Cookie Monster Know something we didnt about Google back in the day? http://www.youtube.com/v/SdRkdvKy5WI .
