Anyone know what it's supposed to signify? They usually having some meaning behind them..

When I first saw it this morning I instantly thought something to do with colour-blindness (those charts you have to look for numbers in).. but it moves so that theory is out of the window

I heard it's to show off HTML 5 and only works with newer browsers, however according to HotelUser it uses Javascript so in that case I don't know, seems sort of pointless, but surprisingly fun.

Google anniversary I think.

The one yesterday was probably just showing how new browsers can use HTML5 and JS to provide a live and interactive Google, and apparently the logo today is signifying live search results.

Now it uses AJAX, you don't need to keep changing pages when flicking through results. It also searches as you type, very impressive
