I don't remember Google doing this before but here's what I saw when I went to my homepage (which has been vanilla Google since the demise of iGoogle).
I chuckled and thought, "Oh how appropriate, a birthday doodle on my birthday." thinking it was commemorating some famous person's birthday or something. No, it was in fact for me. Clicking it gets you to my Google+ profile page.
So now the world will be able to get to know me since this doodle is for all iterations of Google on every computer and mobile device in the world, right? Er, no, of course. It's just for my IP addresses. Oh well, one can dream...I'll be expecting a few billion email happy birthday wishes any second now...
