JAKARTA - Google has changed its logo completely black and added black ribbons to its homepage as a sign of respect ahead of Queen Elizabeth II's state funeral, Monday 19 September.

The logo, which typically appears in bright red, yellow, blue and green, was replaced with gray text in England on September 8 - the Queen's death day.

Black bandes were also added under the logo, along with the message 'Thank you, ma'am', and the link to the 'Reflict Queen Elizabeth II's extraordinary life'.

The gray logo was gradually launched to the Google homepage in several other countries over the next few days.

However, at 00:00 WIB on Sunday, September 18, the famous logo went from gray to black specifically in England.

This has been interpreted as recognition of the Queen's funeral, which will take place at 11:00 p.m. British time.

Google CEO Sundar Pichai sent his personal condolences to the Queen, with a post on his personal Twitter account.

"Send our deepest condolences to the British people and around the world who mourn the death of Queen Elizabeth II," he wrote on September 8. "His steadfast leadership and public services have been a constant thing of our lives. He will be missed."

He is among several tech leaders, including Microsoft founder Bill Gates and Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos to pay homage to His Majesty.

I am honored to have met HM Ratu Elizabeth, and I am deeply saddened to hear she died. My deepest condolences to the Royal Family and British people," Gates wrote in a Twitter post.

Meanwhile, Bezos said: I can't think of anyone who is better at personalizing the task. My deepest condolences to all British people who mourn his death today.

Some Google users took to Twitter this morning to share images after seeing overnight changes.

"At 00:00 a.m., Monday morning (England time), the #Google logo changed from gray to deep black - just before the Ratu's state funeral today," Twitter user @RealKx1 wrote, as quoted by the Daily Mail.

"This has just passed midnight in England and Google's logo has gone from gray to black," wrote @TheGayAlbino.

The funeral service at Westminster Abbey begins at 11:00 a.m. BST, and the door has been open since 08:00 a.m. to allow guests to sit down.

After the service, the Queen's coffin will be transported to Wellington Arch, where the coffin will be transferred to the hearse before traveling to Windsor Castle.

The hearse arrived at the castle just after 15:00 a.m. BST, and will travel on a procession to St George's flagship, which will be handed over by the Dean of Windsor.

The queen will then be buried in a private ceremony attended by her family at the Memorial rote of King George VI at 19.30 am. She was buried with her husband, Duke ofbatel.
