Google likes to celebrate special events, holidays and people. They do this by replacing the good old Google logo on its homepage with awesome animated and interactive doodles. According to Wikipedia, Google has published over 2000 regional and international Doodles throughout 2014 alone. I personally fell in love with some of those doodles and decided to share them with you guys. Some of the doodle are interactive. Hit the links to see the live versions.

Stella Maria Sarah Miles Franklin’s 135th Birthday
No clever animations or interactions. This was simply beautiful artwork.
Holidays 2014
Google started using autoplaying YouTube videos as their doodles. This was one of them. It combined some of the other doodles shows during the holidays and made a story out of it.
New Year’s Eve 2014
From Flappy Bird and ALS ice bucket challenge to landing on a meteor, this doodle pretty much sums up some of the weirdest and coolest things happened in 2014.
