Published on 09/04/2015
Nope, this isn't some special one-day doodle. The Google logo is making a permanent change.
When you visit the main Google search page, you'll notice an interactive that shows the logo morph into its newest form, reflecting the tech giant's availability across multiple platforms such as desktop computers, smartphones and tablets, reads a company statement.
The statement co-written by Tamar Yehoshua, Google's vice president of product management, and director of user experience, Bobby Nath, says the logo has been designed to fit across multiple screen sizes and interface inputs.
"It doesn't simply tell you that you're using Google, but also shows you how Google is working for you," the statement says.
The logo is one in a series of key changes for Google. Last month, co-founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page announced the creation of a new holding company, Alphabet, which will house Google as well as several other projects including Nest, Calico and broadband initiative Fiber.
Brin and Page will run Alphabet, while Sundar Pichai will serve as the CEO of Google, which will manage Chrome, Android, Maps and other Google-related services.
In changing its iconic logo, Google joins Yahoo, Twitter, Microsoft and eBay, which have done the same.
