We all know Google is as minimalist as they come when it comes to their homepage. Google.com rarely displays anything else other than the Search Bar and occasional artwork celebrating a holiday. So when something new is added, it's a pretty big deal. Today is a pretty big deal.

Droid Day officially gets Google approval with a text ad saying 'New! The DROID is on sale now. Learn more.'. Sure we would have loved an Android-specific graphic on the Google logo but Sesame Street is pretty tough competition. It's good to see Google endorse the DROID and interesting to note that they spelled it 'Droid' and not Motorola's preferred 'DROID'.
