The latest news from the Google Chrome team
Join the Google Chrome icon project
Thursday, June 11, 2009
A few weeks ago, a few of us on the Google Chrome team decided to experiment with creating the Google Chrome icon out of different objects. We started off simple, using things like
spoons
and
balloons
, and eventually progressed to more elaborate creations, using
stop-animation
and
other video effects
. We even created a
cake
!
We know from
past experience
that users are the ones who come up with the coolest stuff. So with that, we now turn the challenge to YOU to make a video showing the formation of the Google Chrome icon in a big, unusual or creative way.
Imagine a bird's eye view of a parking lot with carefully arranged cars, coordinated outfits in a stadium's bleachers, a 10,000 M&M mural, etc. We are excited to see what you come up with and we'll showcase the best submissions!
Here are the details:
You have until July 22 to submit your video
Users from all over the world are invited to participate
The best entries will be featured on Google & YouTube
To start you thinking, here's a quick video of our team's experiments. It also includes two great ideas from
FlippyCat
and
Anna the Red
:
