The worlds largest Internet search engine also celebrated Pakistans 64th Independence Day with Google Doodle.
For the 2nd time in the history of Google, a Google Doodle has
been especially designed for Pakistan. Google has put a green-collared
doodle representing the colour of Pakistans national flag on the
Pakistani Google homepage. For years, countless forums have hosted
hordes of discussions on why a Doodle to celebrate Pakistans
Independence Day was not making an appearance.
The idea was pushed in front of the team from Google, Google.org, Google
Maps and YouTube that came to Pakistan last December. It was all over
Twitter and emails were submitted to the Proposals link on the
Doodle4Google website. Run a search on Google Doodle for Pakistan and
youll see how aggressive and assertive some of these requests were.
The doodle is an absolute eye-catcher. The l of Google is replaced by
Minar-e-Pakistan, which is the National Tower of Pakistan in Lahore. The
upper half of the g is replaced by A Crescent and a Star, which
represents an important part of Pakistans national flag. There can also
be seen small-collared stars around the logo. Pakistans Independence Day
is observed every year on August 14, the day Pakistan was made an
independent country based on borderlines created by the British towards
the end of their rule of India. On this special day, Pakistan, in 1947,
became an independent country and also the largest Muslim country of
Asia. Agencies
