“There is bad taste and then there is this. What was going through the designer’s mind? ‘I’ll scale it a little bit. Hmmm, maybe just a little more. More. More. I have so much power. I’m drunk in scaling power. More. More. Scale it more. Don’t stop. Do it. Okay, that’s enough.’”

Wow…you could be designing with the the Bing Team!!! Just wondering….was that name from an alarm clock or a 2 year old?

No way. No way.

Google’s logo is waaaaay worse. I hate that stupid POS logo. It looks like something my 11 year old kids did in MS word.

Who freakin’ cares about the stretch. At least THEY used something besides Times New Roman and fisher-price colors for the thing. ANYTHING trumps that milk-toast-of-a-serif font for a logo.

But alas, a logo is not what makes a search engine successful. The people behind the engine are (many of which used to work for MS.)

That is the real sadness.
