I do not know if I am in the minority here, but I really enjoy seeing the different types of Google Doodles that are regularly placed on the Google home page. It does not matter to me that most of the time you cannot see the Google logo itself as we all know it’s Google, and I am sure that many of us learn a little something new when we scroll over the Google Doodle, interested to see what that particular Google Doodle means.

The first Google Doodle was shown to users in 1998. The Doodle, which depicted the Burning Man logo behind the second O of the Google logo, was placed there for a particular reason – as a type of notification to users that if, for any reason, the server would crash – that users would know that Larry Page and Sergey Brin would not be able to correct the problem until they were back from the annual festival. Since then, the Google Doodle remained, and over the past twelve years there have been thousands of Google Doodles for users entertainment and informational purposes.
