As I've mentioned before, I love Google. Today's logo has me stumped though. Here's what it looks like when you load the page.
I've been trying to figure out what it's all about, but I can't find anything. In the course of searching, I did, however, discover this interesting fact: 6 Nobel laureates were born on September 6th and another Nobel laureate died on September 6th. Weird huh?
If someone figures out what the logo is referring to, please let me know because I'm baffled.
Update: A friend on twitter pointed out that September 7th is Google's birthday. I'd bet if this is a form of digital confetti.
Update 2: Others speculate that it could be Google showing off Chrome's HTML5 skills. Loading the page in IE8 shows a blank area where the logo should be. Could this be the more likely explanation?
Then when you wait a second, the balls fall into place.
Plus, it's interactive! Run your mouse through them and the balls are repelled from the mouse!
