Google Doodle History and a Nostalgic Showcase

The concept of Google has changed little since its inception. Google is a user-friendly and very useful tool for online searches. We know what to expect of Google already: a search bar to enter the necessary keywords and then in a single click, relevant results are returned.

They are often seen on special holidays and or for memorable events. Google doodles are a fun and pleasant surprise, because you never know what you're gonna get. But do you know the story behind Google doodles? Let's explore them together, and look at the most memorable examples of all time.

Why Google+ is the Social Network to Use for Connecting

 Posted in: Social MediaWeb DesignWritten by: Rean John UeharaJuly 20th, 2011

For a couple of weeks now Google+ is the talk of geeks and nerds on message boards, the mass reception was unexpected, as the Google+ team had to disable invites for a couple of days due to insane demand.
