01.28.2012 Google Doodle

A good Google Doodle can make your day as you open the morning search engine, and it can set the tech blogs ablaze with speculation (because there's clearly nothing more fascinating than a Google Doodle). Frequently, the Doodle also provides new perspective on obscure history. They say you learn something new everyday, and thanks to Google, I just learned (after clicking a few links... knowledge isn't just handed to you, after all) that the world's largest snowflake on record is 15 inches in diameter. Hopefully I have now shared this knowledge with a few more people. You're welcome.

And look at that silly, confused cow. Isn't it just so cute? Oh, Google. You just know how to make a girl smile.
