Paris, Jun 19: As the world celebrates Father's Day on Sunday, Jun 19, the web-search giant Google featured a new doodle on its home page to honour fathers and celebrate fatherhood.

The new Father's Day Google doodle appeared in various countries around the globe, but it was not there in Google India homepage. Father's Day is celebrated on the third Sunday of June in many countries and on other days elsewhere.

Just like the Mother's Day Doodle, Google made the Father's Day doodle simple and attractive. Unlike the interactive Les Paul Doodle and video doodle to mark Lunar eclipse, the new Father's doodle featured a 'tie' instead of the letter 'L' in the brand name GOOGLE. Moreover, Google changed the purple colours of the logo to blue, but with the same font.

According to Wikipedia, Father's Day is a celebration of fathers inaugurated in the early twentieth century to complement Mother's Day in celebrating fatherhood and male parenting. Father's Day is celebrated on a variety of dates worldwide and typically involves gift-giving, special dinners to fathers, and family-oriented activities.The first observance of Father's Day actually took place in Fairmont, West Virginia on Jul 5, 1908.

Technology giant Google never misses a chance to feature Doodles on its search engine homepage globally and locally. The interactive and beautifully designed Google Doodles remind us about special days and life of great artists and scientists.
