GOOGLE’S 23RD BIRTHDAY – WORLD’S MOST POPULAR SEARCH ENGINE

The Oxford Dictionary added Google as a word in 2006, confirming its role in modern life.

Google is celebrating its 23rd birthday today with a cute animated doodle on the home page. This doodle is a two-tiered cake with a candle (substituting for the “L” in the doodle) and 23 inscribed. All other letters of the logo are themed as doughnuts.
