Google’s 25th Anniversary: Celebrating a Quarter-Century of Innovation
As Google marks its 25th birthday, the tech giant is going all out to commemorate this milestone. Founded in 1998, Google has evolved over the years, and on this special occasion, several of its products, including search, hum to search, and translate, will feature delightful Easter eggs in honor of the birthday celebration.
Â
To uncover these hidden surprises, all you need to do is search, hum, or translate the words “happy birthday” using Google’s products on Wednesday, and watch as colorful confetti rains down across your screen, adding a festive touch to your experience.

In addition to these playful Easter eggs, Google has crafted a unique Google Doodle to mark its birthday. Google Doodles are temporary alterations of the familiar Google logo, designed for various holidays, events, or to pay tribute to notable individuals. This special birthday Google Doodle pays homage to Google’s logo evolution, showcasing the journey from its very first logo to the current iteration, culminating in a special 25th birthday logo.
Curious about Google’s origins and birthday history? Google was officially incorporated on September 4, 1998, but it began celebrating its anniversary on September 27 in 2005, following an announcement about changes in how it indexed web pages.
Â
The tradition of Google Doodles itself has a fascinating history. The very first Google Doodle appeared shortly after Google’s inception in 1998. It was a simple doodle featuring a stick figure placed over the Google logo, created when co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin took time off to attend the Burning Man Festival.
Â
Since then, Google has unveiled more than 5,000 unique Google Doodles, ranging from celebrations of Valentine’s Day to commemorations of historic events like the invention of the ice cream sundae in 2011. Today, a dedicated team of engineers and illustrators known as “doodlers” is responsible for crafting these imaginative Google Doodles that continue to captivate and delight users around the world.
