Google Doodles

Google Doodles is a program that changes the google logo every so often. The design will change on holidays or important birthdays. There is an annual contest from K-12 students where they create their own google logo and send it to google. The winner will get their logo on the google search engine mail site, and money for you and your school.

Flash Vortex and Glowtxt

Glowtxt is one of the two websites that we visited today where you can make animated text generators. It has many templates you can  choose from, and many colors. You can make the text outlined or make it flash.

FlashVortex is the other animated text generator we visited. I personally like this website much better. It is more organized and you can edit much more than Glowtxt. Glowtxt is still a very good website, but if you want to edit your animated text more, and fine tune things I would definitely choose Flash Vortex.

Google Tricks

Google doesn't just have an answer to anything, it can also do some cool things. Like if you type in "do a barrel roll", the page will do a barrel roll. Also, if you type in Google Sphere, it will have all of the little side options revolve around google.

The last trick I am going to tell you is that if you type in "What is the answer to life, the universe, and everything". The answer comes up as 42.
