Queen Elizabeth II visits Google in London - UK(images courtesy of Jon and google) – On the 16th of October 2008, Queen Elizabeth II visited Google’s UK Headquarters in London.
Queen Elizabeth II was the first Sovereign to send an email, and now Queen Elizabeth II is the first Queen to visit Google’s UK Headquarters in London.
Google celebrated the queen’s visit by creating a special version of its google.co.uk home page, which featured a silhouette of her head as the second “G” and a regal crown atop the “E” in their logo. This Logo is called Google Doodles and was designed by schoolchildren (here the article).
