Google Doodles have become an online art extravaganza. The search engine's logo commemorate holidays, artists' birthdays, and other random events that the company deems important.
The artists painting on digital canvases are producing works of art that will be viewed by millions, but disappear in just 24 hours.

Scrolling over the logo brings up a magnifying glass of sorts which lets you take a closer look at the image. Scrolling over the train makes the whistle blow, scrolling over the clock shows you the inner workings of its cogs, scrolling over the fountain shows it spouting water, and scrolling over the dress in a window shows it spinning around.
