Google celebrates Sir Isaac Newton’s Birthday: Google Doodle!!

by Amandeep Singh on January 4, 2010

in Google

Today when I logged in to the Google’s homepage, I noticed the logo with 5 apples and after a few seconds, I felt like some action when one of the apple dropped.

Google Isaac Newtons birthday

I was amazed to see this and refreshed the page again to see it again. I was very curious why the apple dropped. Others find it funny, while others are thinking deeply what’s the reason behind the apple drop.

First, I thought that the animated dropping apple is because of Google’s rivalry with Apple while some must not have cared about it.

So, why did the Apple drop? I found the answer once I placed my mouse on the Google Apple Doodle for the day :)

Fallen apple Google

After clicking on the doodle, I realized that today is Isaac Newton’s birthday! Isaac Newton got famous because he invented the concept of Gravity when an Apple dropped over his head (what we read in our Class 7 books ) That’s it! That’s why the apple is dropping today on the Google’s homepage!

The Issac Newton Google doodle for today is simply amazing. If you have not been on Google’s homepage today, then it’s time to do it

So, go to the Google’s homepage of you have not seen the Apple dropping there already.

Happy Birthday Sir Isaac Newton.

This is increadible. I did see the logo but did not pay attention to the animation, and of course did not realize that it is a tribute to Sir Isaac Newton. Thanks for the info buddy.

I guess it was pretty much clear as to what the animation was for.

I always liked Google’s relatively subtle logo tweaks during various events. The apple is a nice touch.

I think this is the first time Google Doodle included an animated style..

You posted the same content on Devils Workshop. I don’t think it is good to have same post on two different sites (because of “duplicate content” issue).

Hey Amandeep
When I opened Shoutmeloud for Guest authors, I made few rules to ensure that Shoutmeloud community will grow and we will deliver only quality content.
I was aware of the fact that you are an experienced blogger and posting same content at two places , put myself into that situation, I was left with no other choice.

This action was not taken to stop you from writing, but this is to ensure that community should grow the way it is supposed to. I don;’t want to be bias here with my rules and principles. Let me tell you, one of my good frd, did the same thing 5 months back and it was very hard for me to ban him, but I had no other choice other than banning him. Because rules are meant for every one.

I hope you will understand the gravity of the situation by publishing same post on two blogs.
Thanks for being a part of Shoutmeloud. We will miss you.
Regards
Harsh
