What’s the new Google logo?

I just went to Google and spotted a new logo in place of the usual Google logo :

googlelogo18052008 Whats the new Google logo?

Anyone have any idea what the occasion is and what the new logo means?    I can’t seem to find any official explanation from Google.

    I actually did move the mouse over the image and nothing came up.
