iDavid wants an iPad.

This looks so cool, it looks like a bigger, better itouch (or iPhone if thats what you have...).

Watching the promo video was honestly the first time I have ever thought I can see the end of the PC dominance!

I can see the scenario where apple devices like this mean that the MAC environment won’t be so alien to us – watch out Microsoft...

And the prices, it could well be in the UK for little more than £300... either that or we will all just buy from the US!

Online blog suggest we could have it as soon as March, I think it’s a little way off yet but I know what I want for Christmas 2010!

So click here to add your name to the list of people that want one of these puppies!

Dennis Hwang, Doodles 4 Google

I know I have gone on about it but have a look at this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TOOY0xuQ3TU.

This is Dennis Hwang, he is one of two people that do the Doodles on Google.

He and another design the Doodles that sometimes take over the Google logo. I like it because school kids can get involved, use their imagination and even see their design on the Google Home Page.

Doodgle for Google Winner, Sophie Redford

Google for Doodle have just started to show the winners of the 2009 Doodle for Google competition.

Sophie Redford is this year’s overall winner with ‘My Hero’.

Every year school children between the ages of 5 to 16 are able to submit their doodles for Google with different awards and the grand prize of having your design shown on Google for a day.

I really think this is something that kids can engage with and I think more schools should get involved.

Other winners were;

Ellen Blair (aged 5) with "Super-Gran", Harrison Marley (aged 11) with "Everyday heros", Sarah Hendry (aged 13) with "Remembrance" and Rachel Betts (aged 15) with "Anyone can be a hero".

I think my favourite was from Rachel Betts, below is the winning doodle but all can be seen here.

Doodles for Google

(This was posted 3 months, 4 weeks, 2 hours, 40 minutes's ago.)

Over the last few days the doodle on Google has been celebrating 40 years of Sesame Street.

I love Sesame Street, it’s characters – everything!

Today I looked and found yet another Sesame Street character, Elmo. This prompted me to look at what the Google doodles were all about.

OK, from what I can see there are two things to know here, there is the original doodler (Dennis Hwang) and then there is a cool competition for local schools (Doodle 4 Google).

I’m no expert on Schools but I think Google 4 Doodle is a great idea. It encourages creativity, teamwork and the prize is really cool – a day on Google for the winning design. What is most interesting for me is that I knew about Dennis Hwang but had no idea about this and wonder how many schools know about it?

So here is the challenge: everybody reading this that have children, know people that have children or that are involved with Schools need to tell the school about Doodle 4 Google.

For now however here is todays 'Doodle 4 Google' - enjoy!
