Hey, at least they have never missed commemorating the all important Earth Day. /sarcasm

Apparently, Google has never celebrated Christmas since their inception back in 1999.
Interesting.

I personally like the fact that Google included Norooz (Persian New Year), BUT... I will note from observation that the "Haft Seen" (هفت سین) place-setting does not include what I have always observed, though I've just learned it is optional: the family's holy book, whether Torah, Bible or Koran.

A book of poetry is also acceptable, and somehow that alternative just seems so... Persian.
