A better Google 2007 logo !?
The first thing I saw in 2007 on the web is the Google’s special logo for 2007. Google’s festive logos which are usually so fresh and innovative, this time left me unimpressed. Firstly the logo should spell the letters GOOGLE but it was not close. The banner is / was :
The second letter “2″ does not even look close to “O” in google and the 7 does not even resemble L. So I thought lemme give it a try. With my limited skills and my basic PAINT software, I could come up with something which atleast looked to me better than the one Google one is using. The idea here is not to prove that I can come up with better logos .. not at all !! All I want to say is that Google one of the most creative sites in this world can surely put in a little more effort and come up with better more entertaining stuff !!
The one that I came up with in less than 15 minutes .. ( a very amateurish one though)
Hoping for a cool 2008 logo !!

i wouldn’t say that Google is one of the most creative sites out there… i mean.. it’s a very basic white page with text on it, very minimalist… which is the point.
I agree tho. the special logo wasn’t very good this time around.

yes google 2007 logo sucked. a better design would have been nice. yours sucked too. better leave it to the graphic artists to figure it out. Just because google chose a simple page, doesn’t necessarily mean they are not creative.
