Googlified

Google not only celebrated St. David’s Day yesterday, but also ran two more logos to celebrate the March 1st Movement (on Google’s South Korea homepage) and Baba Marta ( on Google’s Bulgaria, Greek, Moldova, and Romania homepages).

The March First Movement, or the Samil Movement, was one of the earliest displays of Korean independence movements during the Japanese occupation of Korea. [Wikipedia]

The name of the holiday is Baba Marta, a Bulgarian tradition related to welcoming the upcoming spring. […] Romanians also have a similar but not identical holiday on March 1, called “Mărţişor“. [Wikipedia]

Today, March 2nd, is the 62nd day this year’s calendar, and we have “304 days remaining until the end of the year.” [Wikipedia] Three weeks to go until Spring Break for me. Whoo-ya!
