    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?
    I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
    Death thought about it.
    CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.

    --. --- --- --. .-.. . 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.

    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!!
