Figure Evolution
The guys over at Neatorama have put up a post illustrating the evolution of tech companies’ logos. Some of theses evolutions are things we can trace in our recent memory, others are much older. Some of them were good shots, others were not.
Adobe System:
I think I like the one in the middle the best.
-
Apple Inc.
I really hare that they got rid of the rainbow.
-
Canon
I’m really glad they got rid of the whole “primitive” concept.
-
Google
Ok, so the truth is, I really hate the Google logo.
-
IBM
Great revolution, I think. I love the transparent, clean look of current IBM logo.
-
Microsoft:
Microsoft is one of those logos that I remember from a very young age- I mean, how I can forget the first time I ever sat on a computer, waiting for the black screen with the Microsoft logo to unveil what a computer is?
-
Xerox
Xerox seem to love changing their logo. My favorite is the 2004 one. I absolutely dislike their latest logo, which looks cliche and very in line with other tech logos like Sony Ericsson.
For more logo revolutions, including Firefox, Palm, Nortel, Nokia, among others, check out the Neatorama post here.

Very neat. I agree the Google logo needs a lot of evolution.
I actually love comparing the change in icon’s images on Windows… I was only able to view computers as old as windows 1998 unfortunately.

I didn’t see it coming, but my current job might have something similar coming up on the task sheet! :)
