Google’s New Doodle Colourful Interactive Balls

Sep 7, 2010 by Akshay

Google changed logo on his home page to an unusual animated version. The animated version of its logo consists of a swarm of bouncing balls that are grouped together to form the company’s logo. But once you steer the cursor towards them, they fly apart and fly around the window.

Company has yet to explain what it’s trying to say with its latest in a long line of custom logos. A a story in London’s Telegraph quotes a company spokeswoman as saying, “Today’s doodle is fast, fun and interactive, just the way we think search should be.”

That piece suggests that the balls logo celebrates the 12th anniversary of Google’s founding. Maybe Google is just trying to demonstrate that you don’t have to use Flash for fancy animated graphics anymore? That’s an excellent point, although some users have complained that the bouncing balls bog down their computers.
