Google Doodles were neither animated nor hyperlinked initially, but rather simple images with hover text describing the subject or expressing a holiday greeting. They began appearing more frequently and in complexity starting in the 2010s, and the first animated Doodle honored in January 2010 honored Sir Isaac Newton.
