Google had tweeted on Friday, “We’re off to search the wizard, the wonderful ‘Wizard of Oz.’” That phrase, combined with the flashing pink starbursts above the ruby slippers on the search results page, hinted that Google had something special up its sleeve. By touching the ruby slippers on the search results page, users were treated to an animation that began with the slippers clicking three times and an audio clip of Dorothy (played by Judy Garland) saying, “There’s no place like home.” (Fans of the movie will remember that Dorothy clicked her heels three times when she wished to return to Kansas during her fanciful visit to Oz.) Google then programmed users’ screens to spin five rotations counter-clockwise… Read More
