Merry Christmas Search Engine Roundtable readers! I believe most of the search engines have their special logos or themes live today. They include a handful of logos from Google, an animated logo from Yahoo, an awesome picture from Bing, a sweet Ask.com theme, DogPile's fun dress up and more from the industry.
Google began their logo blitz on the first day of Winter. While, we had Winter themes from YouTube, Bing and others, Google started with "the holidays." Calling it "The Holidays" made some Christians upset, mostly those in the U.K. Also, Google did not have a Chanukah logo like Bing or Ask did.
In any event, here are pictures of the Christmas logos, but this time I will end with Google, since they have so many:
Yahoo (animated) Christmas logo:
Yahoo (static) Christmas logo:
Bing's Christmas Theme:

December 25th:

Cre8asite Christmas Logo:

Google's Christmas / Holiday Logos (so far four):

#2:

I'll update this post when I find more logos from the search industry.
For the past year's holiday and Christmas logos, see our posts from 2008, the 2007 logos, plus Google's five logos, 2006 logos, Cre8asite in 2005, also '05 Search Engine Roundtable and '05 Google, Yahoo and Ask, plus we have 2004 and some of 2003 archived for you.

Yes, I have my biases on the subject, but I think Zuula's (www.zuula.com) holiday logo for today is not bad and worth including in the list ... :-)

It seems odd that Google decides not to acknowledge that today is Christmas. It's such a small gesture, but, it seems they go out of their way to ignore christian holidays. Do they also ignore Jewish, Muslim, Buddhist, Hindu, etc holidays? I like Bing's display (my new default search engine).
