Every time I use Google for searches and whatnots, I always look forward to seeing their logo. Why? Because it’s the only search engine that changes their logo for every season, celebration and event in a colorful way! Today, I saw another interesting design to their already countless logo’s - a party theme!
Today, September 27, 2008, Google celebrates its 10th birthday, not with a bang but with a project – "Project 10 to the 100th". Instead of the search engine giant receiving a gift, they’re the ones who are giving back to the community… with one requirement – Each individual must help elicit change.
In a span of three months, Google will award $10M to the top five world changing concepts from anyone who dares, regardless of the size or scope. These funds will be used to help these finalists realize their best ideas.
Contest categories evolve around humanitarian nature – helping elicit change in people’s lives from the most basic to the most sophisticated technology.
You may wonder why Google came up with this kind of project so Managing Director for Google, Andy Berndt shared the reason behind:
"Never in history have so many people had so much information, so many tools at their disposal, so many ways of making good ideas come to life. Yet at the same time, so many people, of all walks of life, could use so much help, in both little ways and big."
And with the most apt parting message from Google – MAY THOSE WHO HELP THE MOST WIN.
