Meh, I don't like it. I liked the old one better.
it's normal for me?
It's new so its obviously not normal for you.
I got it around 4 days ago and was like O_o oo thats sexeh.
But no, they won't be making a new logo, everyone knows their current one etc...
I don't like it... everytime I look in my history I glance over it as i don't recognise it as google..
yeah, it is.Quote:

This could be something new!
I noticed this a while ago but didn't feel the need to post a thread on it!
I also noticed it awhile ago, but it's really not thread worthy ;). Though, it is rather ugly.
I dont like it :(
oh it's changed now

Its global now... It's on all Googles...
Yeah i noticed it earlier, i just assumed my favicons have buggered up, they do that for me from time to time :P looks interesting, I've always thought the old one looked a bit strange
I like it better.
The lowercase G just doesn't suite the actual logo and doesn't fit in with the colour theme they've always had :(.
Yh realised it yesterday, it might be a the "g" of a new more innovative logo :P
I love it o_o
The lower "g" is already part of their logo if you haven't realised. It's the second G in their name. Also it's been changed to this as the lower case G represents the symbol which indentifies googol which Google is named after.
I think that's what it's all about.
There's actually a reason why it's now a lowercase 'G'.
'g' represents 10 to the power of 100 (googol), that's approximately the number of pages Google has to index. There's a little bit of maths and Greek behind the new logo :P
Uh..this is a theory too but it's incorrect according to Google.Quote:

"We recognized there was a need for a Google icon that would better work across multiple applications including web, mobile and client applications. We felt the small 'g' had many of the characteristics that best represent our brand: it's simple, playful, and unique. We will be looking to improve and enhance this icon as we move forward."
Those who dislike this new icon, may revert back to the old one by clicking here.
