WASHINGTON: Internet search giant Google paid tribute to Mahatma Gandhi on Friday on the 140th anniversary of his birth, replacing the 'G' in its colorful logo with his picture.
Clicking on the logo takes a reader to links in the Google search engine to websites about Gandhi, who was born Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi on October 2, 1869 and was assassinated on January 30, 1948.
Google frequently changes the colorful logo on its famously sparse home page to mark holidays, anniversaries or significant events.
It added flying saucers last month to pay homage to British science fiction writer H G Wells, author of the 1898 classic, "The War of the Worlds."
