Third Doodle 4 Google Contest announced with theme “India’s gift to the world”!

2

I have always been in awe with the amount of buzz Google Doodle’s generate. Offcourse, they appear on probably the most visited page on the Internet, but such high levels of interest is due to fact that Google Doodle’s are more than just being artistic. They are no more just designs or doodles, but much more – I am sure many of you have already spent countless minutes moving your mouse of Guitar Doodle or than playing the Pacman Game – All with Google logo intricately been placed inside it.

Here is a fact about Google Doodle that you may not know – Google Doodles are the creation of 32-year-old Google Webmaster Dennis Hwang. Dennis began celebrating and marking worldwide events and holidays with doodles in 2000.

Now, coming back to the contest, if you want to be part of the Google Doodle history – Ask your kids, or nephews or nieces to participate in the third Doodle4Google contest which was announced by Google.

Last year’s theme was “My Dream for India”, which was won by Akshay Raj of Aloysius High School, Mangalore, India. He had become kind of mini – celebrity with following Google Doodle that he sketched.
