Google doodle

[lkc]

Anyone else checked out today's google doodle? I've just got to the end and loved it. I suspect there's going to be a drop in productivity across the country as people complete the tasks

I got to the third question, and got bored lol

Maybe Andi is the one person on planet earth who uses the Bing search engine.

And good for you too...nothing like a bit of healthy competition!

For the benefit of Andi... http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/top-stories/2011/11/23/stanis-aw-lem-google-doodle-ten-things-you-need-to-know-about-the-polish-science-fiction-writer-115875-23582355/

...obviously your Google main page will look different ( ) but just click on the four coloured dots bit at the top right of the Google logo. They change it everyday and it's usually pretty entertaining

Aye Andi, was at the basement part of the Eastern end of the centre. Took a few after the exhaust got done a while back with a camera marginally better than my iPhone Chrome (not sure if other browsers allow the same) allows you to have any pic as your browser background and I just happened to pick that one

Don't often actually check out the Doodles myself though they're always interesting and/or entertaining when I do. This one was certainly both

 

[Andi9386]

Some examples of past Doodles... http://www.google.com/logos/Doodles aren't actually mentioned anywhere on said Google main page as they're considered "Easter eggs" that people have to seek out. A little like other Google tricks like the "do a barrel roll" search that trended a short time ago

As for Google+, there was a topic on this a bit further down the page started a while back when Facebook went a bit wrong after an update. It's fairly simple to use but they're still working out the bugs. Not used it a whole lot recently but I think it's a fairly decent alternative to FB once you get the hang of it.

Ah sorry, I thought google doodle would be a bit more well-known but it obviously isn't. As muppet said they're the google logos that are turned into pictures to commemorate special occasions. Sometimes they're interactive as well such as the time the one celebrating Les Paul's birthday

http://www.google.com/logos/2011/lespaul.html

Pac-man's 30th anniversary

http://www.google.com/pacman/

Yesterday's was another interactive one with a number of problems to solve

Two things that really concern me:

1) Rob has his own car as wallpaper(Is therapy available on the NHS?)

2)Posting on here after 3 o'clock in the morning(no doubt having just finished mindless slaughter on COD MW3)



:tongue3:

I didn't say there was anything wrong with that.
I've got a pic of Dubster as my desktop background, also features RGZ, Colin's old grande, a Mk2 Punto, a Punto Evo & an Abarth GP.
Basically the Punto lineup from St Andrews.

I have had a picture of a Mars Red Focus since I ordered it(telling the wee man it's Grandad's new car). Tomorrow when the real thing is on the drive, it'll be back to either Doctor Who or Italian Gorgeousness. Just me but I'm totally doo-lally!

No wonder Miss D's been playing up, she's annoyed with you.
She knows here replacment is a F..... sorry I can't bring myself to finish off that word, espcially not on Fiat- Scotland......

Get your bags packed Tony, your leaving.
