Why Is Google Spelled Wrong? 'Googlle' Celebrates 11th Birthday

Eagle-eyed web users may have noticed that 'Google' is spelled "Googlle' today. Our Google overlords spelled the name of their website "Googlle" on Sunday morning. So why is Google spelled wrong? To celebrate Google's 11th birthday, Google has two Ls in it to represent the number 11.
Of course, the real question is when is Google's birthday? Last year, Google put up its 10th birthday logo on September 2 and its Wikipedia entry, Google was incorporated company on Sep. 4 1998.
It seems that Google can't seem to figure out their birthdate or how to spell Google. Still, they seem be doing something right. One of the top Google Trends right now is "Why is Google spelled wrong?" So even when the site looks like they've made a mistake, people still look to it for answers.
