Check out today's Google logo. I don't think I've ever seen them do an animated one before. Pretty cool!

Happy 4th of July!

That's nice! I went to lowes to take advantage of the earth day plant sale but didn't buy anything in the end. I've gathered too much from the swaps to want anything more!

Here it is just after midnight, April 27, and the logo is gone. They are fastidious about dates, too.

I can't see it! When I go to Google it automatically redirects me to Google.ca because it knows I'm from Canada. Blah!

Who is Rube Goldberg? Very cute logo.

Sjerin, Rube Goldberg was a cartoonist who drew wacky "machines" that were like what you saw in the logo. One part starts moving and knocks into the next part, etc., kind of like dominoes or a chain reaction.

Very cute logo!

I didn't think about looking at it. Thanks for the reminder. They do some great logos.

One of my favorite commercials is a Honda Commercial. This was shot in real time with no CGI involved in the sequence. It required 606 takes and cost $6 million to shoot and took 3 months to complete. I can't help but think of the pressure on the camera operator to not goof it up!

Red Green has a lot of great "Rube Goldberg" type creations but has never quite matched the Honda commercial!
