There’s been a bit of controversy around the Internet this morning as to whether or not Google forgot how to spell its own name in its new Valentine’s Day logo. It appears to read ‘Googe’, with no ‘L’ in sight.

Well now Google has responded to the claims of their failing to use spell-check. Their stance is that clearly the stem of the strawberry is the ‘L’ as it’s green like the ‘L’ in the standard Google logo. Make some sense, but I still don’t see how that should be interpreted by anyone as an ‘L’. If anything it looks like the extra curl that is on the top of some fancy ‘G’s.

Nice try Googe, but give us back our real ‘L’.

(my spell check just returned errors on all the ‘Googe’(s))
