Google has brought us again an interesting and fun Google doodle, which is the name the variations of the Google logo receive. The Google logo today is a celebration of Jules Verne’s birthday, and unlike plain logos this is interactive.
The idea behind the logo is to remember one of the works of Verne: “20,000 Leagues Under the Sea”. You can see a smaller version of the logo in results pages, but head on to the main Google page to have fun with the logo. You have to use the lever on the right hand of the logo to navigate through the sea. It’s like you are looking behind the glass of a submarine.
The same logo appears for iPhone and iPad users, but the coolest part is that they can navigate this just by tilting the device.
Quickly people have started arguing if this is the best Google doodle so far, many people still think the Google Pac Man logo is the best. What do you think?
