I know they like to do funny little things with the logo every couple holidays, but if I read that right, it looks like “Googe” to me. Just thought it was strange.
UPDATE: Thanks to Rick for this link to some interesting takes on the logo.

mmmm googe goodness … drat now I want chocolate
i think the green part of the strawberry is suppose to be the L…..i think
hahahahaha
oooopsies~!
They forgot the “l” … the guy who made that logo is going to get slapped with a giant fish.
If it was my logo and the guy I pay to create it forgets a letter I would sue him ( Or at least tell him to fix his mistake pronto ).

I hope so, or that’s a pretty bad typo.
the green strawberry thingy and the chocolate sticking out is supposed to be the L…
Only geeks would discuss something like this
the g and the l are busy “at it” which is why they’re so close together.
Wait, your right… “Googe”? Weird.
GOOGE!
Rook, you have a dirty mind, lol
GOOGE FTW!
It just proves that V-day isn’t about love, but fucking chocolate and flowers.
dog gone it, the stem is the L. The stem is the L!
I think
The L you say!
Rook has the right idea, Valentine’s Day is all about “getting some.”
But theJON apparently prefers having it off with food and vegetables, instead of another person. Well, to each his own, I guess.
The Register noticed, too. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2007/02/14/happy_vaentines_day/
Funny that Google didn’t!
The green part of the strawbury is the ‘L’
We get it, the green part is the L, we don’t need 5 people repeating this…
old news, FIRST POST! WOOTZ
oh wait…
No one is perfect, not even the perfection of a search engine that google is.

Yeah, I think they G & L are ‘getting it on’.
Oooops .. wrong link. Here’s the right one:

I Ludicrous, you’re not getting my point. I’m saying that when it comes down to it, Valentine’s Day only exists so that people can spend tons of money on chocolates and flowers. You would think that instead of having a strawberry they would have a heart or something because isn’t that what today’s about? Not chocolates and buying your significant other junk.
theJON
The chocolate on the strawberry is shaped like a heart.
And the chocolate-sauce-covered strawberry isn’t really something you find in a box of chocolates. How they have it there, it’s, well, foreplay.
How would the cartoon styling of Mr Scott J capture the Google logo themed holiday’s?
When it comes down to it, in the USA, *all* holidays are about separating suckers from their money. That includes Christmas, Superbowl Sunday (nyah, nyah, sue me, NFL! I said “Superbowl!”), Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, Labor Day, Channukah, Kwanzaa, and any other excuse that the purveyors of cheap crap can come up with to get you to buy things that no sane person would even want in their garbage bins, much less their homes. I mean, really, who needs a bunch of skinny mylar strips sputter-coated with aluminium? What’s it good for, other than choking your pets and ruining your carpets?
My SO and I long ago decided that we’d take whatever we wanted to spend on gifts for each other, and either put it into our vacation fund, or donate it to various charities.
And I hope the Direct Marketing Association members all choke to death on bad strawberries this year.

Google: “I just know that those with true romance and poetry in their soul will see the subtlety immediately.”
Duh! It’s right there, everyone!
Google hopes we all get some GOOGE lovin’ tonight!!
Yeah, obscure made-up euphemisms rock!
lol.. it’s funny because I thought the exact same thing today when I saw… why a chocolate covered strawberry?? Wouldn’t it have been easier to do a rose or something…
