    Chase the Google logo today!

    http://www.google.com/

    you'll have to let your mouse set before it settles down and forms the word "Google"

    Re: Chase the Google logo today!

    I discovered it last night, but I'm wondering what the significance of this one is -- usually you can run your mouse over the logo, and there will be an explanation (i.e., Martin Luther King's birthday or something like that) -- but this one -- nothing. Any ideas?

    Apparently as of right now, it is a mystery. Some guesses have been proposed.

    I just saw from the official Google Twitter account this message: "Boisterous doodle today. Maybe it's excited about the week ahead..."

    I predict that an Android announcement is coming...perhaps the next actual Google phone (G2? Nexus Two? Even more hopeful: a CDMA or GSM tablet that's at least 10").

    Wow...Google is even more amazing now. You have used it today now, right? Immediate results as you type.

    I've had that luxury for awhile now. Do you have a new computer?

    Actually, looks like the same-old-same-old again today ... back to its "normal-not-celebrating-anything" self. You're kidding, Joanne, right?

    Unless you were somehow part of their testing, Google Instant was new for you too the other day. The new "instantaneousness" isn't the words you are typing, but the display of the results beneath what you're typing.

    OK, Jeremy's talking about what's underneath what one's typing; what I was recalling was -- after the bouncing balls disappeared -- how Google was black-outlined the next time it was seen, and then each letter became colored one-by-one as one typed underneath it ... type one letter, G turned colored, type another the O did, et cetera.
