yeah, that's what I thought, but it's so poorly defined if that's the case.
the logo variations are always 'cute', but they're rarely well-designed. i though this one was better than most, until I realized the L was missing

if that's intentional, it's just terribly and embarrassingly awful the way they went about the execution
it's a design basic that if something could be perceived in any way as a mistake, it needs to be fixed up.
I'm holding on to the theory that they just plain forgot the L in all of their chocolatification.

Googe, Barnabe, 1540-94, English poet and translator. In 1574 he was sent to Ireland as the representative of Sir William Cecil, Queen Elizabeth I's secretary of state. From 1582 to 1585 he was provost marshal of the presidency court at Connacht. Googe's Ecologues, Epitaphs, and Sonnets (1563) contains some of the earliest examples of English pastoral poetry. He also translated some contemporary Latin works into English.

i guess i was thrown off since they usually have slightly more obvious links to the reference they're making when you click on the logo

That's hilarious!
Sadly I think the stem of the strawberry is supposed to be the l since it is normally green?
Either way, someone's getting a bollocking toady over at google HQ!

funny...no one will notice it but us ... sent the customer service lady to googe and told her what was wrong ... she was like " what ?" and spelled it out loud "G O O G L E "
i should note .. this is the same woman who asked me last week if San Antonio was in Texas... and pronounces 'charcoal' as charco
