It's Mozart's Birthday, Google-Style

Friday January 27, 2006
Google tends to roll out the fun logos for various big landmark events; here's a few that I've blogged in the past several months:

Related: Got enough Google goodness yet? No? Well, here's some more for ya. Check out the Google Cheat Sheet, a free printable sheet of Google shortcuts that will save you some serious time.

Google Trivia: Impress your friends and family...well, at least your cat will be impressed (maybe) with these nifty Little Known Facts About Google.

Google Base: What the heck is Google Base? While it did go through some major hiccups at first (porn apparently is very popular), Google Base is gradually smoothing out.

Free Software: I'm such a sucker for free stuff; although I can't beat out Mr. Web Search, since he was offered a five-pound block of caramel three years ago. It's still in the pantry. What the heck do you do with a five pound block of caramel, I ask you? Anyway, Google recently gave away the store with Google Pack, a bundle of software that includes Norton Antivirus 2005 Special Edition, Ad-Aware SE Personal, Google Earth, and Google Pack Screensaver, among others. And it's free!
