Google Valentine's Day Logo has always been the focus of fans

Google replaces the Logo on major festivals or rather meaningful days, and is being sought after by many fans worldwide. Every time Google changes the logo, many fans often rush to advertise. The annual Google Valentine's Day Logo has always been the focus of fans. Beijing time in the morning of February 14, 2009 at about 7 am, Google China regional site on the 7 hours ago (that is, at 0:00 on the 14th) replaced Valentine's Logo, creating a Google-oriented Chinese users released within two days Festivals Logo record.

Beijing time on February 14, 2009 at 0:00 am, Google for the first time in China for the release of Google's Valentine's Day Logo. Logo at zero hours changed one of the Google URLs, using the red letter Gxogle for the entire logo.

Some online media pointed out that Google Valentine's Day Logo Gxogle's theme means that people like fire, but also need to be supported by the XO, red wine because of lover and beautiful, sweetheart because of wine and sweet. Another meaning of xo is kissing, xoxo is hugs and kisses in the English Wikipedia, and xo is a simplified version of the word representing hugging and kissing. However, Gxogle once launched in China, it caused a lot of netizens hot.

Google in Valentine's Day Logo has been changed to Gxogle, which means "o" has been replaced with "X." It is easily misread by a large number of users in China. The emergence of Valentine's Day Logo Gxogle makes some Chinese users think Google Home is black, "Google was black!" The news was widely disseminated for a time.

At the same time, for the well-known reason, "X" represents "sex" in some contexts, which is a relatively uncivilized term in Chinese culture. Therefore, on February 14, 2009 at 0:00 on the line Logo Gxogle, again by Chinese netizens as the most vulgar Google holiday Logo.

For various reasons, the red Logo Gxogle was withdrawn around 7 a.m. on February 14, 2009. The newly replaced Valentine's Day Logo stands above the heart-shaped "Google" for two small birds. The second on-line Valentine's Day Logo is more localized in China than the Logo Gxogle, which easily misleads the brand against Chinese culture. Chinese folk martial arts since ancient times to meet the Valentine's Day culture, the emergence of two magpies tend to represent a pair of pairs of two approaching.

Some netizens think that Google's second online Valentine's Day Logo theme reflects the classic Chinese joke, "There are two birds on the tree." Accompanied by the prevalence of the Internet and mobile messaging, Henan fun jokes, "Two birds on the tree" by the mobile phone and the Internet has been widely circulated throughout the country, and deduced a different dialect version (Google! There are two birds in the tree, you Will know).

February 14, is a non-localized Valentine's Day in China. Google fully consider the feelings of Chinese users, for Chinese users to replace the festival logo twice, in the history of Google is the first time. Demonstrated Google's extraordinary caution at the Logo Gxogle event and also shows that Google places more emphasis on business in China.

Accompanied by the release of Logo Gxogle, Gxogle.com, Gxogle.cn and other domain names have been registered. However, the Google Valentine's Day Logo tree has two birds on the line, making the cybersquatting Gxogle domain name a Valentine's Day dream. (e68e Wei Wei)
