I go to google almost every single day, and find that I can look-up any possible topic imaginable on the search engine! While the informative sites, images, etc. that I find are interesting, I think that the most creative aspect of Google's site is its logo. The website has changed its logo more than 140 times since 1999, and the ever-changing logos always seem to brighten my day.
However, there was some controversy over the logo in 2007, when the website didn't change its logo to honor Veterans Day or Memorial Day. The company said it was trying to be respectful, but I think that there are definetly designs that they could have created that would have honored the veterans.
If you want to catch a glimpse at all of Google's logos, there is an online museum displaying all of the logos for the various holidays, and what date they were created for. As you will notice, Google did create a logo for Veterans Day in 2008 after the controversy in 2007. One of my personal favorite logos is from May 22, 2008. The creator of this logo won a contest and I think that she was very talented. Do you agree? Which logo is your favorite?
