1. In 1999, the concept of the doodle was born when Google founders
Larry and Sergey played with the corporate logo to indicate their
attendance at the Burning Man festival in the Nevada desert. A stick
figure drawing was placed behind the 2nd o in the word, Google and
the revised logo was intended as a comical message to Google users
that the founders were “out of office.” While the first doodle was
relatively simple, the idea of decorating the company logo to celebrate
notable events was well received by our users.
