So as a little side-hobby, I'm going to [as of today] put every Google Doodle in here with brief information on each one, be good to possibly learn new things and be introduced to new famous people/events from history every day or so. Plus as an artist and art-lover myself, I like the designs, simple. Thought this would be a cool idea, will try and stick with it.

A Google Doodle is a special, temporary alteration of the logo on Google's homepages intended to commemorate holidays, events, achievements, and notable historical figures.

If anyone "beats me to it" some days then by all means post! There's sometimes a few per day for different regions/countries so if you see a different one to me, please post! :blush:
