Yes. I saw that...Morse Code. It's Samuel Morse's birthday. I love how they do different logos for something that happened on the day.

You can see all of their past logos here:

Does the Morse Code actually spell something out?

--. --- --- --. .-.. . is actually Google in Morse code. On the Google page it isn't all in one line but the code is correct. Dots are short sounds while the dashes are longer sounds. I learned signaling by Morse code in NJROTC :) Im suprised I still remember lol.

... Morse Code.
It's Samuel Morse's birthday.

You can see all of their past logos here:

Sadly, the archive page doesn't list ALL the past Logos ...
and the Morse Code logo is one that's NOT archived. :(

But I found this site with a reproduction of the Morse Birthday Logo >>>

Left to right, the "Dots & Dashes" spell out the letters of "G O O G L E" ...
The Blue dash-dash-dot are the letter G
The three dashes represent the letters O
The dot-dash-dot-dot stands for the L
and the single "dot" at the end (upper row) spells the E

GOOD One, Google!!
Happie (belated) Birfday, Sam!! ;)
