Earth Day was this past Sunday and there was a ton of news and blog buzz on the search engines being creative with their engines on that day however, there were no threads in our forums. Today, I finally noticed a thread at DigitalPoint Forums about the special day. The thread creator notes which engines made an effort for Earth Day and which did not - also asking you to comment on which you find to be your favorite.1) Google
2) Yahoo!
3) Dogpile
4) MSN (no change)
Google.com does its standard Google Doodle and link to a search. Yahoo! does a simple but nice logo change, but links to a special, protal-like, earth day page. Ask.com redoes the whole homepage, most drastic change - like they did with St. Patrick's Day and links to a search. Dogpile, goes nuts as normal. MSN does nothing, as normal.

I liked change of dogpile. It reminds of me nature in the busy urban life. Yahoo's change is too small to notice. Dogpile's image is very pretty too and it is a pleasing scene because of the use of green color.

I really like the change in ask because giving a picture of earth is really cool. And it made me think that everything in that place got to be clean and friendly otherwise we have no pace to go.
