The best creative minds in the US are at work. Their mission? To win the Doodle 4 Google contest that’s nearing completion. Over a 1, 07,000 students have sent in their doodle impressions to Google. In a competition of this magnitude, the task at hand just got trickier for Google and its panel of judges that include the names of some well-known industry figures like Whoopi Goldberg, Evan Lysacek, Michael Phelps and Jim Davis, among others.

The competition has now reached its finale stages, wherein a lot of 40 creative minds are set to be judged by the panelists. The winner, of course, gets the best piece of the cake i.e. having his/her doodle featured on the Friday version (May 20, 2011) of google.com, in addition to winning a $15,000 college scholarship and $25,000 towards a new computer lab for his or her school.

Watch this space for the winning name and the doodle that bowled Google over.
