Funny, I thought they changed the Google logo permanently and
said "cool it looks like legos."

Fun Fact:

"Billund is a company town, the home of the Lego Group headquarters. There is a Lego factory on the outskirts of town which as of 2005 manufactures 90% of the company's products, though the effects of globalization and competition from companies such as Mega Bloks is likely to lead to more off-shore manufacturing. Across the road from the company's headquarters is the first of the Legoland theme parks, built in 1968." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billund

I visited the real deal LegoLand in Billund in 2001! Then even had a few American icons built with Legos (statue of liberty, Empire State Building, Mt. Rushmore). It was pretty cool!

Even cooler - the sites I had seen in real life in Denmark, I could identify their smaller lego version!
