Google is celebrating its 23rd birthday on Monday. To mark the occasion, the search engine came up with a doodle on its homepage.
The animated doodle features a cake with “23” written on top of it, with a birthday candle substituting for “L” in “Google.”
While Google’s foundation started in the year 1997, it was officially established as a company on September 27, 1998. Co-founded by Sergey Brin and Larry Page, Google is today the most widely-used search engine globally. Its current CEO is Sundar Pichai, who succeeded Page on October 24, 2015.
