2008 Olympic
Google uses various modifications and humorous features, such as cartoon modifications, of their logo for use on birthdays of famous people, holidays, and major events, like the Olympics. For the 2008 Beijing Olympic, Google has been publishing a series of logo mostly based on animal characters of the Chinese Zodiacs.
It seems Google did not intent to use the correct order of Chinese Zodiacs. The correct sequence should be, Rat (Yes, 2008 is the RAT’s year), Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and Pig.
