What’s Google’s Doodle About?

It's, what's that doodle time again.

So what's that doddle?

Google’s latest doodle allows users to navigate scenes from 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, a novel by Jules Verne whos 183rd birthday it is.

“Using CSS3 (and with help from our resident tech wizards Marcin Wichary and Kris Hom), the doodle enables anyone to navigate the Nautilus down (nearly) 20,000 leagues with the simple pull of a lever,” Google doodler Jennifer Horn wrote in a blog post. ”

Horn said she has been fascinated by Verne’s novel since childhood.

“Looking back, I realize that what fascinated me most was the unknown: a creative spark and the imaginative exploration that followed,” she wrote. “Since then, I’ve become more familiar with his work and still believe that exploration is the essence of Verne’s novels. His stories pull the readers into a world filled with infinite potential--be it in the clouds, on land or under the sea” she said.

So get on Google and get deep sea diving.
