Posted on the 31 December 2014 by Nrjperera @nrjperera

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.
