Proof positive

February 14th, 2007

Because I enjoy pointing out the mistakes of large, wildly successful and rich companies that seem to have fun in everything they do, putting a damper on the rest of us who really wish we could work in some capacity for said company, and because it is in my nature to notice spelling errors (though I didn’t notice this one — adgoodness did), I present to you the Google logo for Valentine’s Day.

Goole?

Notice anything missing?

This was on the site as of 4:07 PM CST. Either they’re not changing it, or no one has noticed it, or they’re saying that the stem on the strawberry is supposed to represent the “L.” I don’t buy it.

I don’t feel so bad about my proofing mistakes, all of a sudden.

    I buy it. There was an article in Time about it. I can’t see how this could get misspelled.
