Google's ever-changing logo is, for the next 24 hours at least, an interactive guitar in honour of the late, great Les Paul who was born 96 years ago today (9 June 1915).
You can strum it with your mouse or play specific notes with your keyboard. You can even record your own ditty by clicking the compose button below the second 'g'.
If you're curious (via Google's blog), "the doodle was made with a combination of JavaScript, HTML5 Canvas (used in modern browsers to draw the guitar strings), CSS, Flash (for sound) and tools like the Google Font API, goo.gl and App Engine."
NOTE: On Google's homepage you'll need to be in 'classic' view to see the full size interactive logo above the search box.

“The ‘gray bottoms’ have a little more high output – they have a punchier sound to them”: Joe Bonamassa and Seymour Duncan put pre-CBS tones on the menu with “Greenburst” Stratocaster pickup set
“I sent this to Strandberg to get the wiring done and when they sent it back they included this”: Plini shows us his modded signature Strandberg Boden – but what’s that hiding in the tremolo springs?
