Google is not one to miss out on any occasion for a tweet and the London Olympics are one of the most obvious. Google has always had a series of doodles during the Olympics and that's what it's doing this year, highlighting the most important event of the day.

It started out with the Opening Ceremony doodle, with athletes from several disciplines, and continued with Archery on Saturday, Diving on Sunday and Fencing on Monday. With quite a few days left, as the two-week event has just gotten started, you're going to see a lot more doodles.

While this means that there'll be something new each day, it also means that other potential doodles will be pushed out, at least the global ones. You can check out the doodles so far below and stake out the Google homepage every day for the rest. Unless you don't mind waiting a day until they end up on Google's doodle gallery.

What happened with these!?! 2010 Winter Olympics was represented with beautifully elegant and stylized illustrations. The London 2012 doodles are awful... and we have to see a new one every day!?! I can't wait until they stop.

These are terrible graphics! (Note the ponytail on today's [August 4th] pole vaulter!) I know that such things are relative and others appreciate these images, but every day? Perhaps there could be other styles in addition to these kindergarten renditions?

the style in these doodles is quite exquisite, is the name of the artist known?
