Google doodle celebrates Valentine's Day
This year's Valentine's Day Google Doodle is very different from the straightforward one that Google usually puts up. Last year, Google put an artwork doodle - inspired by a work of art 'LOVE' by American artist Robert Indiana.

This time, it's a music video doodle in the form of a short animated love story of a boy trying to capture a girl's heart - the music set to Tony Bennett's rendition of Hank Williams' classic song 'Cold, Cold Heart'.

The default image is of a boy holding up a Valentine, with the Google logo in the background - clicking the 'play' icon on the Valentine, plays the video.

With brazen bravado the boy initially sees no flaw in his plan. He attempts to gain her love through every possible present! Furiously Googling away to glory he finds gifts to woo her with - roses, a dinosaur sweater, a teddy bear, a scuba helmet, balloons, a rabbit but alas, to no avail! She is not impressed. Finally, with a big sigh... the boy realizes that showering her with gifts isn't going to work at all. He takes up his own skipping rope, and as Google gives us all a lesson in what true love really means, he begins skipping alongside her.

She doesn't want fancy dinosaur sweaters! She wants a man to stand beside her. And jump rope. It's quite cute that Google seems to deign to the fact that one can't Google one's way into others hearts; that love cannot be bought - one needs just, to be genuine.
