Do do do doodle!

Assalamualaikum and hello to Dr. Rose and my fellow classmates!

Google doodle. Yep. I’m pretty sure that all (or most) of you have heard about this google doodle thing.

I think it is one of the coolest things produced by Google,(okay exaggeration alert) of all time. Google have produced a lot of cool things that I admire massively, that have never been done by other major search engines. I mean this Google doodle thing is very fascinating and can be entertaining sometimes. It actually inspires me in many ways. People can acquire new info about the things they have never thought they would discovered..Just move over the cursor on the doodle, and if the things written in the textbox that appears relates to our interest or curiosity (maybe),with just one click we will be able to find out what the doodle is all about or to whom the tribute is being paid.Those doodles could be graphically amusing sometimes, and not only that, they help people to know something they never knew before :) You know, this is one of the creative ways in acquiring information, unintentionally. Your intention was to download songs (legally,lol) at first but you end up reading about Charles Dickens instead :p

I've watched one of the videos on Google doodles and the doodlers speak up about their job… One of the amazing things that managed to catch my attention was, one of their intentions in initiating Google doodle is to promote learning among people especially for youngsters, in a VERY fun way! Okay now I sound overjoyed but I have to admit that I am.

There are many doodles that have been produced. Some of them are still images, some are animated, and some are even interactive. Below are the some of my favourites:

I end up reading about Ice Cream Sundae and its indulgence...... and googling Sundae images.... This  doodle was created to pay tribute to the anniversary of the Ice Cream Sundae.

Malaysia Independence Day 2012 :)

I shot hoops all day long in between studying for my final exam last short semester. Haha. I even compared the scores and stars obtained with my friends. Lol. This doodle was created in honour of the London Olympics 2012.  And yes you can still play it here! Keyboard sport FTW! :p

"Total Lunar Eclipse. Live imagery provided by Slooh" Amazing. Google cooperated with Slooh Space Camera to provide the live commentary and real time images of the lunar eclipse to the people all around the globe especially for those residing in the place where the lunar eclipse was not visible. Visit here!

Let's play the electric guitar! I found out that so many people actually spent their time creating catchy tune from here. Haha. This doodle was created to pay tribute to its inventor, Les Paul.

This is how I see it, there are so many intriguing ways to spread information and encourage people to 'know' and 'learn' more. Google help humankind to understand the world and appreciate things better... Their efforts should be given a 5-star :D

From my personal opinion, Google doodlers are beyond lucky. The Google Doodle team have one of the best jobs ever…
