Pity I use the excellent News Fire for my syndication needs, the new theme really makes me want to switch.

Changing your Brand Name: “Googe”?

Google’s homepage was today displaying a Valentine’s Day themed logo, unfortunately missing the “L” in Google. “Googe”? Now that sounds nasty…

Googe

People on reddit, digg and various blogs have discussed it. It was posted to flickr. Yet noone seemed to get the hint.

Well, at least some should have heard of Barnabe Googe, an English poet of the 16th century. He is famous especially for his line “I did but see her passing by, and yet I love her till I die”.

Others might know the Irish-British rock band “My Bloody Valentine”, which might be a more direct reference since their lineup also included bassist Debbie Googe in their early days.

So no, Google did not drop the “L”.
