 The google logo that celebrates the search engine's eleventh birthday. |
|
Google has released a special misspelt version of its logo – apparently to mark 11 years since the company was founded. The search giant's name appeared with an extra letter "l" on its home page on Sunday, a change that did not escape the notice of the internet. Within hours of the new logo going live, "why is google spelt wrong" and "why does google have two ls" were two of the most popular search phrases on the web. Google was formed by Larry Page and Sergey Brin 11 years ago this month – in September 1998 – and the company has in the past altered its doodle to celebrate its own anniversaries. For its tenth birthday last year the first letter "o" in Google was replaced with a cupcake. Google has always used its logo as a way of commemorating important historical dates and major world events, but has become increasingly playful in recent weeks. Last week Google put paid to speculation about the meaning of three "unexplained phenomena" doodles by admitting that they were designed to commemorate the 143rd birthday of the novelist HG Wells. The first mysterious Google doodle appeared on September 5, and showed a flying saucer hovering over the Google logo and "abducting" the letter "O". On September 15, a second Google doodle appeared, showing a flying saucer hovering over a field. The Google logo was spelt out as series of crop circles, and clicking on the doodle produced a list of web pages related to crop circles. The third doodle, on September 21, featured a scene from Wells's book War of the Worlds. 點(diǎn)擊查看更多雙語(yǔ)新聞

昨日，谷歌將其首頁(yè)圖標(biāo)更換成了一個(gè)特意拼錯(cuò)的版本，以慶祝其11歲生日。 周日，搜索巨頭Google在其首頁(yè)的名字（Google）中多了一個(gè)字母“l(fā)”，這一變化沒有逃過網(wǎng)民們的眼睛。 在新標(biāo)識(shí)發(fā)布后幾小時(shí)內(nèi)，“Google為什么拼錯(cuò)了”和“Google為什么有兩個(gè)“l(fā)”（Googlle）”成為網(wǎng)上最熱門的兩個(gè)搜索詞條。 谷歌公司由拉里?佩琦和瑟金?布林于11年前的九月創(chuàng)立，也就是1998年9月。該公司過去也曾用改動(dòng)圖標(biāo)的方式來慶祝其生日。 在去年谷歌10歲生日當(dāng)天，Google圖標(biāo)中的第一個(gè)字母“o”被換成了一個(gè)杯形蛋糕。 谷歌經(jīng)常用它的圖標(biāo)來紀(jì)念歷史上的重要日子和世界各地的大事，而近幾周來，Google圖標(biāo)的花樣越來越多。 上周，谷歌結(jié)束了幾周以來人們對(duì)其此前發(fā)布的三個(gè)“神秘圖標(biāo)”的種種猜測(cè)，坦稱這三個(gè)圖標(biāo)是為了紀(jì)念小說家赫伯特·喬治·威爾斯143歲誕辰而設(shè)計(jì)的。 第一個(gè)神秘徽標(biāo)出現(xiàn)于9月5日，呈現(xiàn)出一個(gè)飛碟盤旋在谷歌圖標(biāo)的上方，并“劫持”了字母“O”。 9月15日，神秘圖標(biāo)第二次出現(xiàn)，此次呈現(xiàn)的是一個(gè)飛碟盤旋在田野上空，Google圖標(biāo)的幾個(gè)字母則連成了一系列的麥田怪圈。而點(diǎn)擊圖標(biāo)就會(huì)出現(xiàn)和麥田圈有關(guān)的網(wǎng)頁(yè)列表。 9月21日出現(xiàn)的第三個(gè)神秘圖標(biāo)是威爾斯所著的小說《世界大戰(zhàn)》中的一個(gè)場(chǎng)景。 相關(guān)閱讀 調(diào)查：你“Google”過自己?jiǎn)幔?/font> Google郵件添新功能 幫你冷靜發(fā)郵件 （英語(yǔ)點(diǎn)津陳丹妮 姍姍編輯） |
