If you hit "Insert Coin" you can do TWO PLAYER! :D

Use WASD to control Ms. Pacman, and the arrows for Pacman.

Google steps it up YET again!!

http://common1.ziffdavisinternet.com/util_get_image/30/0,1468,i=305900,00.jpg

Today, Google's (http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2386684,00.asp#) home page has one of the most interactive Google Doodles (http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2386636,00.asp) to date. In celebration of Les Paul's 96th birthday, Google's home page sports an interactive guitar version of its logo.


There has been an outpouring of exuberant reactions to the latest doodle. Many have been aimlessly strumming while others have figured out how to play a number of songs.


You can strum away until the day's end, or you can record yourself playing a tune. Of course, the recording function only allows for thirty second clips, but that's not too big of a hurdle.


The Doodle works two ways. You can either move your cursor over it to strum the notes, or you can use your keyboard to play them. It's important to note that Google Instant should be turned off as any key press would be put straight into the search field.


A quick Google search will yield many people that have put together keystroke combinations to play a number of famous songs.

Okay fine. I actually record video when i write music so I don't forget it. Also, I changed it a bit once I started playing it on guitar (and it's a half step down) and the chorus was really bad so I cut it off. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JEwW3C0K6Sc

I don't think I've spent so much time poking around at the google homepage before
