A TechCrunch reader informs us that Google Kuwait<\/a> has replaced its usual logo with a doodle one, as the company often does for special occasions in specific countries or on Google.com. <\/p>\n

Google is currently putting the spotlight on Kuwait’s National Day, as evidenced by the file name (kuwaitnatlday10-hp.gif) and where clicking the logo takes you<\/a> (translation<\/a>).<\/p>\n

The only problem: Kuwait’s National Day isn’t January 25 or 26, but February 25<\/a>.<\/p>\n

To be more specific, the State of Kuwait celebrates its National Day on February 25, marking the creation of country as a nation in 1961. Kuwait celebrates Liberation Day on February 26, marking the liberation of the country after seven months of Iraqi occupation.<\/p>\n

There’s definitely no public holiday going on the 25th or 26th of January, however, so either they’re going to keep this doodle logo and link up for a month in anticipation of Kuwaiti festivities, or someone got the date wrong. <\/p>\n

My money’s on the latter.<\/p>\n

(Thanks for the tip, Michel<\/a>)<\/p>\n
