Have you ever wondered who is the person responsible for transforming Google's logo into cool looking graphics? His name is Dennis Hwang. Check out Hwang's blog entry. This 28-year-old webmaster is now in charge of all Google's webmasters. CNN reports, "He has been manipulating the six letters in the Google name into shamrocks, fireworks, hearts and goblins since shortly after he got an internship there in 2000. Company founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin found out that he was an art major in college."
I have always thought that it took a team of Ph.Ds to create Google's artsy logos, but it only took one man. Dennis Hwang has created over 150 logos over the years for Google. Check out all the creations by Dennis Hwang here.
