Google Just Got a New Logo. The Internet Reacts.

Kevin Whipps Last updated: April 9, 2024 · 2 min read

It’s hard to change anything without expecting the community to have some kind of opinion, and when the company doing the changing is Google, everyone has something to say.

Oh wait – you haven’t heard yet? Yes, Google changed their logo. The process of changing their branding is detailed online, but you’re not here for that, now are you? Nah. You want to see the funny things that the Internet said. Don’t worry, I’ve got your back.

So where do you stand on Google’s new logo? Love it or hate it?

    It's horrible! I love sans serif as much as the next guy, but this? I might have to change to bing, the font's better. 11 years ago
  • Just love it! It's cool and not dull anymore :D 11 years ago
  • I think the old one was a little out of date, but this one seems childish and boring. Could've done something much cooler. Not everything has to be simple flat design. 11 years ago

    Well as said in the beginning there is bound to be opinions over whatever changes that comes. But props to the company that wants to bring a change, and continue to do so :)! 11 years ago
  • I think it's pretty horrible.I could have made something like this when I was 5. It's just so boring! 11 years ago
  • It looks like a logo for Fisher Price or Crayola, very childish looking logo. Not at all what I think of when I think of Google. 11 years ago
  • Hated it at first, but I think it's already growing on me. Has anyone noticed the relationship between the slanted 'e' and the tail on the 'g'? Also, it looks better at small sizes than the old logo. 11 years ago
  • Nice logo google 11 years ago
  • I think it resonant with their vision, about expanding market. Its efficiently load faster on low connectivity and pop out even on a devices with small resolution, majority of handheld devices in the developing countries. Even more, it easier to animate more responsively. Big change, Big risk. 11 years ago
