New Delhi: Google has at least three different doodles on its different home pages around the world on August 4, but the most fun of them all is not visible straightaway to Google users in India (and also in Ukraine). While the Google India home page is celebrating the 85th birth anniversary of the multi-talented Kishore Kumar, those in Ukraine get to see one on theatre actress Maria Zankovetska.
The doodle the rest of the world is spending time playing with marks logician and philosopher John Venn's 180th birthday whose Venn diagrams are something most of us would be very familiar with.
The Google doodle takes the Venn diagram concept and presents it in a fun interactive way. The Venn Diagram doodle was designed by Google's Mike Dutton and the engineer who built it is Corrie Scalisi.
Dutton says that he and Scalisi, "wanted to make something kids would find especially fun and educational."
In Venn diagrams circles are used to visually and logically sort groups to illustrate their relationships to each other. For example, one circle may contain things that are mammals. The other circle may contain things that have wings. The overlapping space that both circles occupy would consist of mammals that have wings. To play the doodle, uses have to choose one item each from the two wheels and the doodle will show something that overlaps both.
