Google Holiday Logo Story
Many of you have noticed that the logo changes from time to time on the Google homepage. These changes are dedicated to various events. On Habré, separate topics often appear dedicated to certain logos. But I still have not seen the complete collection, and so I tried to find the maximum number of these holiday logos.
UPD Comrades who put a minus, please comment for what! And then it is completely incomprehensible, I sat writing, so that later I could get a minus. It's a shame ...
To my great surprise, Google did not have a complete collection, there are only some logos:
Google’s eighth birthday is September 2006.
US Independence Day is July 4, 2006.
World Cup is June 9, 2006.
Victory Day - May 9, 2006
All these, and some other logos flickered on the Google homepage in 2006.
A complete list of the
tradition of changing the logo appeared back in 1998, then Larry and Sergey placed the logo of this festival in the Google logo before leaving for the Burning Man festival.
Since then, Google has changed its logo. Marketers were against it, because under the laws of marketing the logo should not change, but users like it!
Already in 1999, Google changed its logo, first for Halloween:
And then for Thanksgiving:
In 2000, Google did not go around the election campaign in the United States:
As well as the Summer Olympics in Sydney. A Kangaroo was added to the logo, and the letters of the logo were repainted in the colors of the Olympic rings, symbolizing all the continents participating in the Olympics:
Also in 2000, aliens first appeared on the logo:
It should be noted that Google changes its logo from year to year for New Year, Thanksgiving, Father's Day, Mother's Day, Independence Day and Earth Day .
For example, this is what it looked like in 2000:
New Year - 2000
Thanksgiving.
In 2001, Google also celebrated Korea’s Independence Day, Swiss National Day, Bastille Day, Canada Day, and of course, US Independence Day.
Korea
Switzerland
France
USA
Canada
From year to year, there were more and more dates that Google could not ignore, in 2002, for example, the logo dedicated to the birthday of Pablo Picasso appeared:
In addition, the World Cup was celebrated in Japan and South Korea:
And the Salt Lake City Winter Olympics:
2003 Year:
Alfred Hitchcock’s birthday
50th anniversary of the discovery of DNA
Albert Einstein’s birthday
In 2004, the standard set complemented the same pre-election logo:
Summer Olympics in Athens:
Birthday of the French mathematician Gaston Giulia, who worked on fractals:
In 2005, the logo changed on Google May 3 - Teacher's Day
And on Leonardo Da Vinci's Birthday:
The logos of 2006 were given above, it is only worth noting that in 2006 Google began to celebrate national holidays on different domains. So, for example, the Jewish New Year (Rosh Hashanah) was celebrated on Google.co.il (Israel):
On German Google.de, the day of unification of Germany:
On Google China - Teacher's Day:
2007 Year:
50 years from the launch of the first artificial Earth’s satellite:
Google’s 9th Birthday:
2008, of the last:
Birthday of Diego Velazquez, an outstanding Spanish artist:
The invention of the first Mongolfire :
The first laser:
This is such a colorful story with Google holiday logos. I hope that Google will please us in the future.
