It's a reference to [unexplained phenomenon].

But the whole UFO with a light beam looks unquestionably like a mushroom.

McKenna would be proud.

Terence McKenna has seen a flying saucer before. The missing chapters of his book, True Hallucinations, deals with UFOs and his theories about them. It's quite an interesting read: http://deoxy.org/t_ovrsol.htm

"Mystery solved! Find out why Google used a doodle of a UFO on its search engine"

Link: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-1211397/Google-doodle-mystery-Flood-internet-speculation-search-engine-features-UFO.html?ITO=1490#

Google bamboozled its users today by displaying the symbol of a UFO on its search engine page.

The website featured the classic image of a flying saucer shining a beam of light onto the middle of the classic logo.

It usually displays images that mark anniversaries or key events on its home page but its selection this time seemed a total mystery.

Clicking on the link only led to the results for 'unexplained phenomena', adding to the confusion which soon spread around the world.

The choice sparked a flood of speculation on the internet with social networking sites Twitter and Facebook abuzz with questions.

One Twitterer said: 'Umm, got to www.google.com. What's up with the UFO thingy?'

Another added: 'Puzzled by the Google logo. The depiction of so called "abduction" and the search page it leads to (spontaneous human combustion, etc.).'

Someone else joked: 'I'm not sure, but I think I saw UFO on the Google Doogle today.... I didn't get a good look at it, but I think it Abuducted the Letter "O".'

However, those up on their Google history and internet technology were able to work out the cryptic message.

According to Tech Crunch website, Google sent its first ever message on Twitter in code when it joined the site earlier this year.

And today it sent out another message in a numerical code which was: 1.12.12 25.15.21.18 15 1.18.5 2.5.12.15.14.7 20.15 21.19.

To the uninitiated this means nothing, but apparently it is a simple internet meme - the name used for a phrase or concept that spreads like wildfire on the web.

Tech Crunch - and some other internet buffs - deciphered the message by using the pattern that 1 is A, 2 is B and so on.


Clue: Google sent a message on Twitter with the numerical code which referred to a famous internet phenomenon back in 2000
Once you have been through the entire message, this makes it read: 'All you o are belong to us.'

So far, most of us will be none the wiser.

However, this is a reminder of a famous meme used in the early 2000s which declared: 'All your base are belong to us' and became a phenomenon.

It is a phrase - poorly translated - taken from the opening scene of a 1991 version of the Japanese video game Zero Wing.

Some users immediately realised this was the case once Google put up a Twitpic of its logo today and the meme.

'Ha Ha. Good one!,' wrote one. Others added: 'Beam me up!' and 'All your base are belong to us.'

It is still unclear quite why Google chose to put up the spaceship and the meme today, with speculation it might be linked to new alien film District 9.
