On June 9, 2011, Google released its playable guitar logo, and Google Guitar arrangements are now the newest YouTube uploads. While some workers strummed mindlessly to get through their workday, others came up with an alternative way to play popular tunes.
In this specific video, Mitch shows off his skills playing The Beatles "Hey Jude" with ease on his Google guitar. For those who have never seen the Google guitar, its arrangement makes it relatively simple for any non-musician to strum decent-sounding chords; to play an entire composition, however, is an entirely different matter and does require some musical skill. These Google Guitar arrangements demonstrate how much people use the search engine and enjoy the company's effort to provide interactive features.
