For those that missed it - the other day Google's logo was replaced with an interactive design where when you rolled the mouse over any portion of it it blew apart color by color. I felt like a little kid again and was as in complete awe.Some are trying to decode a meaning behind it. Hopefully they still have it accessible.. let's see. :P

The Google dots, or Google balls, has turned the Internet upside down today as blogger try to unravel the Google logo's hidden message. 

Cyberspace is buzzing about Google's bouncing balls.

The popular search engine has unveiled its latest logo lunacy and Google-philes are getting their giggles playing with the colorful dots.

The latest Google logo design is a rare interactive which responds to your mouse, shattering the word "Google" into red, blue, orange, yellow and green circles. When left unmolested, the balls settle into the popular company name which has over the last decade become a verb.

Several websites have attempted to unravel a supposed mystery to the logo, which many suggest has a hidden message or deeper meaning, outside of being a clever gimmick geared to get Web-obsessed bloggers chatting.

Google often develops logos to celebrate anniversaries and holidays. Generally, they are accompanied by links which reveal the artist or meaning. This latest clever concoction is absent of such a helpful hint, which has sparked the conspiracy theories.
