  • What's with the crazy bouncing balls google logo?

    No alt tag anywhere, and no results when I search

    Anybody have a clue?

    This sounds suspiciously similar to snipe hunting.

      Go take a look at it if you don't believe me.

      There's almost always some sort of rationale behind it.

      Is it the anniversary of the invention of the superball? IKEA appreciation day? National color-blindness awareness month?

            On Tuesday, September 7, 2010, Google celebrated ball pit balls with an HTML5 doodle.

                There's no alt tag because it's not an image.

                  I know that. I was hoping that they hid one somewhere on teh page, but I looked at the source and didn't see it.

                    Search results are in: it's Google's 12th birthday. Pretty cool interactive logo treatment IMHO.



                    Nice avvy, KH.

                        I thought it might have been some sort of nod to Pointillism, like a specific anniversary to Georges Seurat's development of the technique.
                        Is it me, or is MOBIUS a horrible person?

                          Instead it was a nod to Pointlessism, a specific anniversary to Sergei Brin's development of the technique.

                            So I wonder what amazing research got KH to think it's for IKEA

                              Perhaps it is some kind of colourblindnessness appreciation.
