Why is today's Google Doodle freaking me out?
True story. I logged on to Google this morning and felt a very oddly disquieting feeling when I did (yes, I am sure you have a joke to insert here) but I didn't really think much of it. Then I went back to Google a little later and had it again. Ok, now this is really strange. Then I saw this tweet from @deadprogram, which explained it perfectly:
"For some reason, the Google barcode logo frightens me. Maybe it was the barcode tattoos from Terminator?"
And that's it! Today's newest Google Doodle is just a barcode but its simplicity over the sparse negative space of the all-white background was off putting. (shudder) Guess I will have to go and Ask Jeeves today. ; )
(Thanks to Ron @deadprogram Evans for the inspiration!)
