He has been manipulating the six letters in Google's name into shamrocks, fireworks, hearts and goblins since shortly after he landed a position with the company in 2000. The creators of google met Dennis at a neighboring university at Google facilities, such as Stanford University, is where they see that Dennis is an artist in Design.
The google owners Said: "Hey Dennis, why don't you design something for the goole logo?" and since that day Dennis belonged to the company Google Inc.
Now he is in charge of the Google webmasters, and he designs the logos for that company, it is only about 20 percent of his work, but that does not mean that it is not a lot of work.
Hwang said that he had to chain everything, after he had what he called his "brilliant" idea of making individual designs for each of the 32 teams in the world soccer tournament.
Logos are linked to Google search results on the subject, which can drive a lot of traffic to the sites.
Explain Dennis: "Unfortunately sometimes we pick up a few sites, so we have to cycle through search queries," he said. "But, yeah, it's kind of the fun aspect of it that users can do more research on the topic to find out."
Juan Malyon, president of online art guide Artcyclopedia.com, said his site got a huge surge in traffic in April, when Google featured Spanish surrealist painter Joan Miro.
He said that he got ten million additional users.
Said Malyon: “It didn't cause any problems for the server. He explained that he saw the status of the site and came to the conclusion that was why the visits. "
Malyon said that most of the traffic appeared to be "curiosity" - people who were more interested in the logo than in the artist's work. He said the surge probably didn't help his business much, but he appreciated the interest.
"I am absolutely happy, and every webmaster in the world is happy to have so many visits"
Hwang said: "That the users put to choose the designs and that they could criticize the designs to choose"
Hwang said: "That the most popular designs have been New Year's Day, and Library Day"
"That was a huge hit among librarians across the whole country," They even sent me cool library-related toys and hats things like that. One was even a librarian action figure with "shushing action" so that it was really funny. "
He said that he meets a few times a year with a small group of Google staffers to decide what events to cover.
"We talk about the interesting holidays that lend themselves to the occasion, or the various international holidays or whatever current happenings or news events we think of."
Hwang said that his favorite designs were the birthday series that honored Michelangelo, Picasso, Van Gogh and other famous artists.
