	3/25/08 Originally launched last year in Google Earth, we're thrilled to announce that Google Sky is now available on your web browser.

	2/13/08 If there's one thing kids love to do, it's doodle. So we think your class will be eager to take part in Doodle 4 Google, a competition where we invite schoolkids to play around with the Google logo and see what new designs they can come up with. The theme of this year's competition is "What if...?", a deliberately open-ended idea that we hope will get those youthful imaginations working overtime. There are great gifts for the finalists, and the winner's doodle will actually replace the Google logo for an entire day. So register your school and get those students doodling! Learn more.
