The technology giant is causing a buzz in cyberspace over its latest logo creation.
Web surfers visiting Google’s homepage were greeted Tuesday with blue, red, yellow and green balls that bounce around the screen before eventually settling to form the familiar company name. When a user moves his or her mouse over the balls, they scatter before eventually reforming.
Speculation is rampant on the Web about exactly why Google has launched the logo.
Some are speculating it has to do with Google’s 12th birthday, the anniversary of Javascript and the use of HTML 5. Whatever the inspiration or reason, the company is remaining mum. The company has previously utilized its logo to celebrate the likes of individuals like H.G. Wells, among others.
Google has demonstrated yet again how effective a relatively simple creation could be causing an international stir — and undoubtedly inspiring a spike in traffic and usage.
