Today is the first day of Autumn 2008 and Google has changed its logo to celebrate.
Google also did this for the first day of Summer which didn’t go down too well because the UK missed out on Summer this year.
Happy first day of Autumn 2008!

Noticed that today morning when I happened load Google and also saw LittleWoods Direct & Shopeeze taking the advantage of the term “first day of autumn 2008″ which Google links to from home page!
Happy first day of Autumn 2008!
‘its’ logo (it is a company singular! petty I know)
There is only one Goolge – so it is singular
Well done, you corrected yourself, now decide if autumn needs a capital letter because you are undecided above.

woo, autumn
omg use poeple are sad commenting on google logo

‘Its logo’ is perfectly correct. Tiny little thing like an apostrophe and it always gets butchered! You only put an apostrophe in the word ‘it’ to show you have shortened something like ‘it is’ or ‘it has’ etcetera.
Yay i love autum becuase i do.!
Vinay,
You look like a sad wanker
No way!
It was like summer never happend this year. I’m stull wating for easter!
Good site by the way

autumm rock maan wooh !!!!!
u lot r so sad its unbelievable
Today the autumn equinox is officially the middle of Autumn, autumn is the 3 months surrounding this equinox, so Autumn officially started around August 6th or 7th and will end on around November 6th or 7th. If there were only 2 seasons, summer and winter, we would now be in winter. I like long clear nights but I don’t like the cold so I think winter is ok.
Thatblokesanutter, it read ‘Google has changed their logo’
let’s enjoy autuam!!!! yahhh

If were sad commenting on here, then your sad aswell as your commenting on this page, so we have alot in comment you t**T

Hi Patrick, Nice Post. I blogged about your SEO accomplishment and attached a larger SEM strategy around funny, odd & quirky holidays and events. I list a few ideas where brands could apply Quirky Holiday SEM and leverage cheap inventory, low competitive rates and temporary traffic spikes for brand awareness. I welcome feedback and ideas…What do you think? Thanks!
Google is amazing.
