Lol… Google doesn’t care about Mexican people?
Well… that might be over-analysis. Did you know that 5/5 is also Children’s Day in Korea?
With the high number of Latino community, I believe Google could have easily given their custom graphics to celebrate the 5/5 day.
Oh well, every day is a new day. The richer get richer, the poorer get poorer, doesn’t that ring a bell in the Web2.0 world?
Ask.com bungled the spelling of Cinco de Mayo, but at least they made an effort. Pictured here are Yahoo’s animated mariachis and dancers. But Google, the company well known for its holiday flights of logo fancy? Nada. Yes, it’s actually a minor holiday south of the border. But the victory in Puebla over the French has gone unnoticed in the Googleplex for the ninth year running.

I’m sure everyday must be some occasion in some part of the world. That way, we could soon be blogging about the days Google has its normal logo.
Yeah, I think Google should automate the seasonal logos for all seasons.
I totally agree, it would be great to have a Doodle for every day, however I don't agree with the original comment. Last year there was a great Doodle in the Google.com.mx site for Dia de los Muertos, which is a way bigger holiday than 5 de Mayo (which is not even a national holiday) Día de los muertos is.
In fact people in the US who want to celebrate 5 de Mayo, kind of piss me off, because most of them confuse that date with Mexico's Independence day which is on September 16. So before you go complaining about something people should get their history lessons straight.
