[Editors] your help for a google logo for MIT's 150th birthday, April 10

[Andrew Whitacre]

Friend of mine at Google Cambridge, when I asked if she has any in's,  
says, "Yes - let me see what I can do ..."

I'll keep you all posted if any options come via that route...

>> Hello my fellow editors,
>> I had an idea that for MIT's 150th birthday on Sunday, google  
>> should have an MIT-themed logo for its home page with a link to the  
>> 150th website. I sent a request to the designated email address but  
>> it felt a bit like sending into a black hole.
>>
>> I'd like to ask your help: if you agree and are so inclined, please  
>> email proposals at google.com the suggestion of doing this. Below is  
>> my forwarded email if you'd even just want to cut and paste.
>>
>> I figured my email could be overlooked, but a group of like-minded  
>> emails all from @mit.edu might get noticed.
>>
>> I checked in with the 150th folks and have their blessing on trying  
>> to do this. It would be fabulous (and great PR).
>>
>> Happy convocation!
>> Melanie

>> PS. If you'd like to see some special logos (or "doodles") they've  
>> done in the past, go to http://www.google.com/logos/

>> Hello,
>> Sunday, April 10, 2011 is the 150th birthday for MIT - it seemed  
>> logical for there to be a google logo for it!
>>
>> It could be as easy and the MIT dome in one of the "o"s and a link  
>> to the 150th birthday page: http://mit150.mit.edu/  (just an idea)
>>
>> Please feel free to contact me for more information or anything.
>> Thanks,
>> Melanie
