Queen Elizabeth II In Google UK Logo, In Honour Of London HQ Visit

If you visit Google.co.uk today, you may notice that Google has a special logo up for Queen Elizabeth II. The logo looks like this:

Why is the special logo up today? Today, the Queen is visiting Google’s central London headquarters to learn about Google’s technology and meet school age kids who are the winners of a competition.

Nikesh Arora, president of Google Europe, Middle East and Africa, and senior management, will be greeting the Queen today at Google. More details can be read at Reuters.

Postscript: A slight embarrassment for Google. The Queen’s husband, the Duke of Edinburgh, asked to see Google’s London office on Google Maps. It wasn’t there in satellite view, as the building is new and the images of that area were too old.
