Ready the vegetable-tossers, conspiracy theorists, and patriotic guillotiners: Google and Yahoo have snubbed President's Day.
Google especially (in part because nobody pays attention to Yahoo unless Microsoft tries to buy them) is known for spicing up its logo on special days, to commemorate artists, historic accomplishments, and often, national holidays.
Memorial Day hasn't been part of that tradition either, to many's dismay. (I stopped bugging them about more trivial things, but a couple of years ago a Google PR rep told me they didn't want to take a chance on offending anyone by appearing to make light of such a solemn and reverent occasion like Memorial Day.)
