For the last doodle of 2013, Google decides to dance the night away. December 31, 2013 11:10 AM PST Farewell, 2013. (Credit: Screenshot by Chris Matyszczyk/CNET) On an Internet landscape blighted by the spying of governments, corporations, and ex-lovers, Google's doodles have been an apogee of delight in 2013. So, to celebrate the passing of 2013 -- and good riddance, you unlucky year, say many -- Google's perhaps tipsy doodlers have decided to do the hustle, the shuffle, or the oh-dear-lord-my-head-is-spinning-so-I-must-keep-moving-cha-cha.

The look on number 4's face suggests that he is a touch uncertain. I'm not sure if he's worried about whether he can bring positive change to this dancing crowd, or whether he is merely appalled at the other number's dance moves.

And may your adoration for technology never blind you to the small truths of humanity: we all just wanna dance wit' each other, really. Don't we?
