1.吃豆人

On Friday, 21 May 2010, on the 30th anniversary of the arcade game Pac-Man, Google unveiled worldwide their first interactive logo.

Anyone who visited Google could play Pac-Man on the logo, which featured the letters of the word 'Google' on the Pac-Man maze. The logo also mimicked the sounds the original arcade game made.

The "I'm Feeling Lucky" button was replaced with an "Insert Coin" button. Pressing this once enabled you to play the Pac-Man logo. Pressing it once more added a second player, Ms. Pac-Man, enabling 2 players to play at once, controlled using the W,A,S,D keys, instead of the arrows as used by Player 1. Pressing it for a third time performed an "I'm Feeling Lucky" search.

It was then removed on Sunday, May 23, 2010, initially replacing Pac-Man with the normal logo. Later on that day, Google released a permanent Google Pac-Man site, due to the popular user demand for the playable logo.

任何一个访问Google的用户都可以在它的logo上玩吃豆人的游戏,游戏组合成了一个“Google”的标志。

“手气不错”这个按钮换成了一个“投币”按钮。只要一按这个按钮,你就可以开始玩吃豆人游戏了。再按一下,又可以加入一个新的玩家。

这个logo在2010年5月23日,周六这一天撤下。一开始代替吃豆人的就是Google最常见的logo图。后来在这一天,由于众多用户对这个能玩的logo反响异常好,Google提供了一个永久性的Google吃豆人网站。

2.盲文

Five blue dots, three red dots, three yellow dots, four blue, three green and two red: yes, it's Google spelled out in Braille. This was issued on 4 January 2006, in celebration of the 197th birthday of Louis Braille, who invented the embossed-point alphabet for blind and visually impaired people.

五个蓝色的小圆点,三个红色的,三个黄色的,四个蓝色的,三个绿色的,以及两个红色的小圆点:没错,Google用盲文拼写出了它的logo。这个logo涂鸦出现在2006年的1月4日,为了纪念盲文发明者Louis Braille的197岁寿诞。

3.流行之王

Google's August 29th logo celebrated Michael Jackson's birthday a couple of months after his death. The two Os in Google were replaced with two feet, en pointe, wearing patent leather shoes and shiny white socks below slightly-too-short trousers.

在迈克尔·杰克逊去世几个月后,8月29日,Google更换了其logo来纪念他的生日。这个logo上,Google的两个“O”由杰克逊标志性的黑鞋白袜来代替。

沪江小编:

话说不少人都觉得黑色皮鞋和白袜子的搭配不太协调。但有人说,这世上唯一一个能这样穿又很河蟹的,的人就是迈克尔·杰克逊了。

4.芝麻街

In 2009, Google marked the 40th anniversary of Sesame Street with a new 'doodle' featuring the programme's Cookie Monster. Users of Google in the UK, France and Canada were greeted with the hungry blue character's familiar 'googly eyes' in honour of the programme's four decades on air.

2009年,谷歌用芝麻街里的曲奇怪物来庆祝芝麻街的40岁生日。英国,法国,以及加拿大的用户能非常欢快地看到这个熟悉的怪物瞪着大眼睛来庆祝节目播出40周年。

5.科幻之父

The UFOs in Google's logo were designed to mark the 143rd birthday of author HG Wells. Although Google regularly uses its doodles to mark significant events, anniversaries and notable dates, it usually does so explicitly. This was the first time Google has used a series of mysterious logos to build up to an event, although the search page today shows a new Google doodle to mark Wells'birthday which takes web users straight through to a list of web pages related to the author.

这个由UFO组成的logo是Google用来纪念科幻作家HG Wells(威尔斯)的143岁诞辰。Google在使用涂鸦来纪念重大事件,周年日的时候,通常会比较明确地表明出来。但这次,谷歌第一次用多个科幻神秘元素来纪念一个日子,而没有明确说明。不过这一天Google的搜索页面还是配上了一组威尔斯的搜索结果来暗示用户当天是他的生日。

6.弗里达

In 2010, Frida Kahlo's 103rd birthday was celebrated with a Google doodle.

2010年9月,谷歌用这个logo来庆祝卡通片《Flintstones(摩登原始人)》50周年纪念。

9.呐喊

This logo was featured on December 12, 2006 (Edvard Munch's Birthday). Featuring "The Scream", this composition was created by Munch and is said by some to symbolize the human species overwhelmed by an attack of existential angst.

2006年12月12日是挪威画家爱德华·蒙克(Edvard Munch)生日,谷歌将他的名作《呐喊》融入了logo中。

《呐喊》这部作品表达的是人类极端的孤独和苦闷。

10.Imagine

On Friday, October 8, 2010, to mark what would have been the day before the 70th birthday of John Lennon, a 32-second "Video doodle" appeared on the google homepage. The "E" of google was shaped like a play button. The video was a simple animation that was accompanied by Lennon's song "Imagine".

2010年10月8日,是甲壳虫乐队约翰·列侬的70岁生日。Google的主页上呈现出一个32秒的视频涂鸦。Google的“E”变成一个“play”的按钮图标。这个小视频的配乐正是列侬的名曲《想象(Imagine)》。

11.酷狗宝贝

14.科学怪人

The 213th anniversary of the birth of Mary Shelley, the British author of Frankenstein, was marked by a very unusual Google doodle of a darkened room with ghostly portraits on the wall and a shadowy figure in a doorway.

为了纪念《弗兰肯斯坦(科学怪人)》的作者,英国女作家Mary Shelley(玛丽·雪莱)诞辰213周年,谷歌制作了上面这个恐怖气氛十足的纪念logo:一间漆黑的房屋中,笼罩着阴森的气氛,门口处还有一个人影投射而来。

沪江小编:

213周年也要纪念么……好歹也整个123或者321这样的吧囧。话说大家是否了解玛丽·雪莱呢?不过说起她的老公,想必大家就都认识了吧,那就是英国著名的浪漫主义诗人雪莱啦!

15.圆周率日

On March 2010, the Pi Day, 3.14 was celebrated by math nerds and Google, worldwide. Having been conspicuously missing from Google's ever-growing repertoire of special-event doodles for years, Google finally relented and unleashed its inner nerd, not that it tried to hide it too hard in the past. And, perhaps to make up for all the years it skipped, Google went all out this time and showed off six common uses of the famous number. The Pi Day Google logo starts off with the formula everyone knows (?) for the area of a circle A = πr2, but goes on with some more advanced stuff. The two 'os' in Google are used to represent the sin(x) function over a 2π period.

在2010年的3月14日,不仅仅是那些数学的狂热爱好者,就连Google也来为圆周率π来做庆祝。

圆周率日这天的Google涂鸦由一个大家都认识的公式开始:圆的面积=πr²。之后还有几个比较复杂的公式,一起组成了Google的字样。

沪江小编:

小编表示后面的这些公式已经全都还给偶高中老师了囧……比较了解的童鞋可以来给大家科普……望天……

16.投桃报李

On Thursday, April 1, 2010, Google jokingly changed their name (and logo) to "Topeka" for a day in response to the city of Topeka; Topeka, Kansas, had unofficially changed its name to Google for the previous month.

2010年4月1日,谷歌开玩笑似地将自己的名字改成了Topeka,以感谢一个月前,美国堪萨斯州的Topeka城改名成Google的行为。

沪江小编:

果然是4月1日的风格啊~
