Does anyone know the significance of the current Google logo (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)


They're all character's from the Dr Seuss books. I don't know why they should be on google though...

EDIT: A bit of digging has found that tomorrow would have been his 105th birthday.

"The Butter Battle Book" is one of my favourites of all time!

Anyway, it's Dr Seuss's birthday on 2nd March. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/party1.gif)



EDIT: how do I type so slowly that by the time I've submitted my reply to skylark's post , 6 posts have got in there before me?!

There is free cake on offer at work. You have to walk over to by the canteen to get it.

Nobody seems to be going to get any (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)


(Well, having made my first scary phone call of the day, I think I will go and get some to fortify myself with free cake prior to making my second scary phone call of the day. Even if nobody else is going over there).
