Google celebrate I-Day with doodle

New Delhi, Aug 15 (IBNS) As India celebrates its 68 Independence Day, popular search engine Google joined the countrymen to the mood of revelry by decorating its homepage with a doodle on Friday.

The doodle showed India's first postal stamp which was released when India got its independence in 1947.

On Nov 21 1947, the first stamp of independent India was issued. It had an Indian flag in it with the slogan 'Jai Hind'.

Apart from the stamp, the 'G' letter of the word 'Google' is saffron in colour while the last three letters are in the green shade of the Indian flag.

From Charlie Chaplin to Marie Curie, Google doodles not only celebrate birth anniversaries of great personalities, they also make users know about important dates through designs and animations.
