Google is celebrating its 23rd birthday. You have prepared this for us

Google is celebrating its 23rd birthday today with a new animated logo on the browser homepage. The 9to5Google portal informed about the news.

Temporary Google Doodles have been part of the browser since 1998

The tradition known as Google Doodle has begun in August 1998, a few days before founding the company, to celebrate the Burning Man Festival.

Today, the letter “l” changes to a candle, which is inserted in the cake with the number 23. The other letters in the logo change color and get a chocolate icing. After a few seconds, the bottom of the cake turns into a cute face and welcomes you.

The company was actually founded a few weeks earlier

While the company was officially founded on September 4, 1998, it arbitrarily chose September 27 as the day to celebrate its birthday. The history of the browser itself dates back to 1996.

The goal of founders Sergei Brin and Larry Page was to create a search tool to easily browse the incredible amount of information that was quickly gathered on the Internet. This fact is even reflected in the very name “Google”, based on the word “googol”, which in mathematics denotes the number 10 ¹⁰⁰. In addition, the name of the company’s registered office, “Googleplex”, is derived from an even larger number called “googolplex” (10 per googol, ie 10 per 10 ¹⁰⁰).

The technology giant has also prepared discounts on the Google Store to celebrate

In addition, in some parts of the world, the company offers special promotions on the official Google Store during its birthday. Some of them will also allow customers to get one of the promotional products for free or a discount when ordering upcoming smartphones from the Google Pixel 6 series.
