There is no doubt about the sensation that Google doodle causes all over the world. Maybe it’s their way to pay homage to the legends of the world, maybe it just serves to attract traffic to their search engine or maybe they are only trying to make up for lack of an interesting brand mark; either way their free cartoon logos for the day make quite a stir. Let’s have a look at some of the famous Google doodles that have caused sensation over media: 1. Les Paul 96th birthday- June 9, 2011: The logo for guitar legend Les Paul’s birthday was so popular that it was extended for another day.

Edvard Munch’s birthday - December 12, 2006: To mark the birthday of this famous Norwegian painter, homage was paid to him by using his famous painting ‘the scream’.

San Diego Comic-Con ’09 - July 23, 2009: DC Comics’ Jim Lee created this batman cartoon logo for Google to celebrate the comic convention 2009.
