leap year google logo 2008

Woot! Today’s February 29th, the ultra-special, once-every-four-year Leap Day.

February 29 is a date that occurs only every four years, and is called leap day. This day is added to the calendar in leap years as a corrective measure, because the earth does not orbit around the sun in precisely 365.000 days. [Wikipedia]

A similar logo was drawn in 2004 to celebrate Leap Day.

Both logos are just, one word - weird.
