Doodle 4 Google is a competition where kids from across the U.S. were asked to doodle new Google logos. Google had received thousands of entries, and narrowed it down to 40 finalists for public voting. Voting is now open to the public, and the winner will replace the normal logo May 22, 2008!

In 2000, Dennis Hwang became Google's first doodler. When asked how he comes up with designs for logos Hwang responded: "First, I do a lot of brainstorming, search for images on Google, and absorb all the imagery. Then I apply a design that interacts with letters. I find that a bit more interesting."

Some of them are ok, others not so much - they are done by children of course so we can't expect the world.

Some of these are very good. All of them have more creativity than I.

It's important to brainwash kids in their early years.

How is this brainwashing? In our local paper every year elementary kids are taught about advertising by having a contest just like this buy they make ad's for local companies that are sponsoring it and the winners get money for their ad.. and there are usually hundreds of kids doing it

I'm so tired of how society tries to brainwash the youth into becoming productive members instead of degenerates.

It's no different than using the children to juice money out of people with fund-raisers. I don't think we were ever aware what the funds were for until we get to high school and it becomes about prom, graduation, etc.

I liked this one made by a 4-6th grader...
