Kind of appropriate having a big Chinese dragon since Google helps the Chinese censor internet access for its people.

Or how about the fact they've featured a different animal from the Chinese Zodiac every day since the games started?

So Google celebrates China and not the Olympics. Check me if I'm wrong but didn't some other civilization start the idea of the Olympics?

The "mouse" would help signify it is the year of the rat... or you can read way more into it if you would like.

Considering that if you click the image it takes you to the medal count and China is in first place with the U.S. in second, maybe the U.S.

Since the picture file is named http://www.google.com/logos/olympics08_basketball.gif,
I'll go out on a limb here and say it's something to do with 2008 Olympics basketball
