Today is apparently Alexander Calder’s 113th Birthday and to celebrate, Google have replaced the usual search logo with one of their frequent commemorative logos (doodles), in this case an interactive 2d representation of one of Alex Calder’s famous mobiles.Also, note the shadow below the search box and buttons, and on some laptops, if you rock the laptop from side to side, the mobile moves and swings, making use of the inbuilt accelerometer (Not on iPad though)Thanks for subscribing to Andy Roberts blogAmazing Alex Calder Logo on GoogleRelated posts:SearchWiki from Google is LIVEAt last google reader has a search boxGoogle vs Yahoo

Comment Search
http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2009/05/14/comment-search/
You guys are generating an amazing amount of feedback on your blogs. Matt mentioned in the April Wrap-Up that there were 8.6 million comments! Comments are flying in every second of the day. And have you ever had one of those blog posts that was good, but the real action was in the comments? The blog post is only half the story, it’s the feedback from everyone else that fills in the rest. To make it easier to find the second half of these stories we’ve added comment search to WordPress.com search. Select the comments options from the WordPress.com search page and we’ll hunt through the millions of comments that have been added to WordPress.com blogs to find what you are looking for. To reduce the comment inferiority complex you get many of the same features and options as post search: sorting by relevance (the default) or most recent, limit results by blog (like site:gigamom.com) and an easy way to subscribe to new matches via an RSS feed ( the Follow this search via RSS link at the bottom of the sidebar). Comment search, because it was about time comments got a bit more respect.
