- TwoBit 15y agoIt doesn't seem to make any sound on FireFox 4 and IE9.
- hsmyers 15y agoFireFox 5 seems to work...
- corin_ 15y agoDo you have flash blocked?
- babo 15y agoJust a hint, on Chrome it's using Flash to play sound.
- kubrickslair 15y agoIt's strange but it does not work on Chrome but is fine on Safari for me- I have Flash turned off on both.
- hammock 15y agoIt works on my FF4 ... Yeah it is using flash.
- click170 15y agoDon't forget noscript.
- clarkevans 15y agoIt's sort of fun to scroll through historical logos too... http://www.google.com/logos/ http://www.google.com/logos/
- joeyespo 15y agoNice. I thought this was a fun little distraction. I'm glad they keep their past logo art available.

- hugh3 15y agoThis got me curious: what does pi sound like? And the answer is that it's actually surprisingly tonal. The opening "31415" firmly establishes the key, and thereafter there's sonorous intervals to keep everything fairly well-behaved; the few out-of-place notes can be dealt with by an appropriate sort of rhythym. If you're gonna try it I recommend it as far as: 31415926535897932384626433832795028841971693993751 So that you get a nice 5-1 ending.
- nostrademons 15y agoPi actually reminds me a bit of "Nimrod" from Elgar's Enigma variations. The opening is only one note off, and then many of the later sequences in pi have the same large jumps that Nimrod does. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sUgoBb8m1eE http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sUgoBb8m1eE
- evanrmurphy 15y agoReally cool concept. :) Doesn't every sequence of numbers sound fairly tonal on the Les Paul logo though, since it's restricted to diatonic pitches?
- iamwil 15y agoSo google doesn't tell me...but who or what is Les Paul?
- benmccann 15y agohttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Les_Paul http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Les_Paul
- iamwil 15y agoThanks. One of the only times le goog has failed me. I should have just went to wikipedia, or maybe wolfram
- Daniel14 15y ago? Clicking on the logo takes you to the results page for the query "Les Paul", the 1st result is Wikipedia, which, if you read it, should answer your question..
- iamwil 15y agoyeah, I didn't expect to get downvoted for that. I wasn't trolling. I was puzzled by this too, since when I searched for les paul, I only got two results: one for the logo, and one for the list of logos.
- jonknee 15y agoThen you did it wrong--Les Paul has 66,900,000 results for a Google search. He's world famous.

- joejohnson 15y agoNice job! I love that song.
- jarodlam 15y agoIt's amazing how far the logos have evolved. I used to work with the original doodler of the logos and I always thought his work was great, but the dedicated doodle team lead by Ryan and under Marissa's wing have made them 10x better. Designing logos that engage the audience is brilliant. Kudos to the new doodle team.
- marquis 15y agoYou can also play all 10 notes at once: hold down keys 1-0. You'll notice a nice 'bug' if you hold. Here's a common progression. Hold down all the notes then move to the next chord in whatever rhythm you like: qeti ryi tuo qeti If you start off using your left hand for 'qe' and your right for 'ti' you'll find you can move through the progression easily. A messy example (I just started playing around): http://goo.gl/doodle/e4PVd http://goo.gl/doodle/e4PVd (Oh, and turn off quickfind in Firefox or use another browser, annoying as hell).
