Question Google doogle ??
I am a little confused by the crazy Google doodle.

I guess we are supposed to understand / appreciate the homage to Dr Who.

http://www.theguardian.com/technolog...-google-doodle

Has anyone tried to "play" it?

Your mission, should you choose to accept it (and it's Friday, so why shouldn't you?), is to rescue the six letters of the Google name from the nefarious enemies.
I have a feeling that IT departments, developers, and, well most of the tech world, will stop and pay playful home for a whole day on Friday.
Or maybe it will go away by Saturday - - I don't know.

Thanks, Mari. I missed it entirely. It is not yet in the archive, either.

I've never been a Dr. Who fanatic, perhaps because I've not seen a lot of it. I did see a couple of shows and they were cool. It is hugely popular amongst techies, though; I do know that.

Maybe when the doodle shows up in the archive I will try to play it.

Default complaining
The google doodle for the world cup is going to go how many more weeks?

I watched 15 mins of one game and read about that and another (I would rather read about soccer than watch it because I do not know what to watch for and the game is too fast for me to follow and the announcers are little help.)


Can I give Google a call to tell them to knock it off?
The octopus with the moving arms is distracting.

Cool playing doodle
I keep getting killed by the robot!



I'm going to go watch Poirot for a while... I can't play and watch.

It's a cute game though.

Mari, what is it that confuses you about the doodle?

I've now played it right through (rescued all six letters)... was there something you wanted to know?
