For commemorating the movement of women's rights we celebrate International Women's Day every year on Mar. 8. In 2017, our internet giant Google celebrates the day by showcasing thirteen remarkable women's story on its homepage.
History shows us that women's day was 1st observed in NY in 1909, which was organized by socialist party of America, for demanding fair pay, better working condition and the right to vote. So it's known as Int. working women's day. In 1917, after getting right to vote Soviet Russia announced Mar. 8, as a national holiday.
Google is a user-friendly helpful tool for online searches. There is a funny quote "Google is a woman, has an answer for everything." Doodle is the new modified feature of Google logo. They are usually seen on special holidays, memorable events in form of a story, game, slideshow, quotes etc.
