Google Zipper Honors Birthday of Uncle of the Zipper

People going directly to Google to perform a search (who does that any more?..but we digress) were curious to find a big Google zipper going from the top of their screen to the bottom of the screen. More interesting was the fact that they could grab the pull tab on the zipper and unzip the screen, which then revealed a Google search for Gideon Sundback (more properly “Gideon Sundbäck”) who, while not the father of the zipper – as he didn’t invent it – was the one who made the zipper an everyday item; thus we dub him the Uncle of the Zipper.
