Happy Valentine's Day everyone! Today there are many site's sporting special logos for the special day. Google, Yahoo, Bing, Ask.com, YouTube and others all have special logos and/or themes for the day.
Google's logo was designed by Robert Indiana, an American artist associated with the Pop Art movement. He is the artist responsible for the famous "love stamps." And as you can see, it is the love stamps that is today's Google logo. Here is the Google Valentine's Day Logo:
Google is not the only search engine with a special logo.

I should note that in one country, Google has it wrong. If you go to Google Argentina and click on the special Valentine's Day Google logo, you are taken to a type result. It takes you to Dia de San Valentin Argenrina, clearly a typo that Google's auto-spelling corrections fixes but shows you. Here is a picture:
Anyway, happy Valentine's Day to you all. For the past year's logos, see 2010, Valentine's 2009, Valentines 2008, Valentines 2007, Valentines 2006 and Valentines 2005.
