Google started showing personalized birthday Doodles to logged in users back in 2010. But one thing they promised was to never show your age in the Doodle. Well that has gone out the window.

One searcher posted a picture of his Google Doodle birthday reminder on Google+ and the new version adds a line of how old you are in seconds. This specific person is "819,984,950 seconds young today." according to Google, which is about 26 years old.
