Google Easter egg pays tribute to the late Betty White

Betty White, the legendary Golden Women actor and comic, handed away on New 12 months’s Eve on the age of 99. In the present day, Jan. 17, would have marked her 100th birthday.

Marking the date, followers took to social media to pay tribute to White, sharing messages and pictures and collaborating within the #BettyWhiteChallenge to lift cash for animals in honour of her advocacy work. Cincinnati Zoo named a penguin in honour of her Golden Women character, and Monterey Bay Aquarium named a giving program after her.

Google, in the meantime, had its personal tribute — an Easter egg for anybody typing the actor’s title into the search bar.

Typing “Betty White” into Google prompts animated rose petals to fall from the highest of the display screen, earlier than the message “Thanks for being a buddy” seems on the backside.

“Thank You For Being A Buddy,” recorded by Andrew Gold, is the theme music for The Golden Women.

White performed Rose Nylund, one in every of 4 characters sharing a home in Miami, for seven years from 1985 to 1992. The position received her an Emmy for Excellent Actress in a Comedy Sequence.

Followers and pals have been remembering White in an outpouring of on-line grief and tales.
