- hello2usir, on 10/12/2007, -7/+47All this 'Web 2.0' noise has been overdue for some good mockery. I hope this continues.
- aloser, on 10/12/2007, -21/+26osbjmg - just so you know, at least *1* person got the Dane Cook reference.
- betterth, on 10/12/2007, -19/+7I got the Dane Cook reference. Dane Cook is effing hilarious. That was off the retaliation cd, right?
- casabona, on 10/12/2007, -24/+4I got it too man.
- Sonizel, on 10/12/2007, -17/+12i like google logo 1.0 better than 2.0
- Anotious, on 10/12/2007, -3/+33Dugg Mirror
Put all the ones i could find alll in one page
http://livewavecam.com/blog/redesign20.htm - kyl3, on 10/12/2007, -5/+12the 2.0 FedEx logo makes a slight change to the traditional arrow found between the "e" and the "x." i always thought that was clever
http://www.fedex.com/ - nathanmock, on 10/12/2007, -1/+11Mirrored pics:
http://www.aberrant.us/mirror/redesign - Badaudio, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9are gradients back now?
- masamunecyrus, on 10/12/2007, -4/+10Perhaps it's because I'm evil, but I love that "HITLR!" logo. ^_^
- Zippo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+13FedEx's logo wasn't just clever... it won several awards for that little hidden arrow... and rightfully so.
- echo1, on 10/12/2007, -0/+16my favorite part was the Burger King logo unchanged
- kenvibe, on 10/12/2007, -3/+3Haha... "Anotious" thought it would be a good idea to have me host all of logos for his website. I wouldnt have minded if he would have asked, but it was just begging me to do it. I couldnt resist changing the first logo...
http://livewavecam.com/blog/redesign20.htm - phileplanet, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2Forget that. Add them to logopond
- Gdoubleod, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Here is a link on digg to all the flickr tag for yay2do0logoparody so that you don't have to sift through all the comments:
http://digg.com/design/Web_2_0_designs_for_common_company_logos
- osbjmg, on 10/12/2007, -68/+36Yea it is so true,
- tenkai, on 10/12/2007, -35/+4It's NOT ok if you don't get it.
- jonezy, on 10/12/2007, -33/+3i wonder if there are toooobes?
- m00kie, on 10/12/2007, -32/+1OMG this thread is so like in real life. I wish there was a web 2 logo for amex. cause you know it's true.
- tenkai, on 10/12/2007, -31/+0There are tubes and they are holding up the super shiny table.
- m00kie, on 10/12/2007, -44/+4dudes, somebody needs to make a web 2.0 version of the digg logo. that would we so sick.
- ikickass, on 10/12/2007, -3/+46scroll up and look at the top left corner of the site.
- hxcxor, on 10/12/2007, -92/+4this is emo
- Matt-lars, on 10/12/2007, -7/+61How is this emo? New logos don't make want to grow my hair out and dye it black.
- the_snitch, on 10/12/2007, -15/+170I wish my lawn was emo so it would cut itself.
- hxcxor, on 10/12/2007, -37/+1only non-emos would understand.
it's okay if you dont get it. - matito10, on 10/12/2007, -29/+3No, you're emo! *slaps hands*
- jhatcher16, on 10/12/2007, -10/+4ok 1) this isn't emo, and 2) that Fedexr one is great!
- ezod, on 10/12/2007, -7/+14the snitch gets 100+ diggs for reading bash.org.
- musoka, on 10/12/2007, -104/+3Why are we linking to a thread dealing with Design in a Technology news site? And be that, a thread that's no good? It's not even ha-ha funny, even as a designer.
Buried.- adamhas, on 10/12/2007, -29/+30this just in, musoka is retarded
- boomerxl, on 10/12/2007, -6/+67Oh Geez! I don't know why musoka. Could it be because Digg isn't (just) a technology news site anymore, or could it be that design has always been a subsection on the site?
Moron. - jpisthedude, on 10/12/2007, -12/+2Stolen. Zero.
- Ryosen, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7Just what the world needs. Another designer that takes himself too seriously.
- steene01, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Scroll up. Look at the left column with all those neat, pretty, shiny categories. The bright yellow highlighted box says DESIGN! It's not like it's misfiled or anything.
Not that he'll come back and read what we're saying about him behind his back. Whoever knows this guy sit him down and explain in simple terms the apparently complex intricacies of digg.
- magic6435, on 10/12/2007, -35/+3i dont understand why do they all have reflections? like every one.
- musoka, on 10/12/2007, -24/+13It's supposed to be Web 2.0 style, reflections are "in".
- tenkai, on 10/12/2007, -6/+81Because that is Web 2.0. The internet is on a super shiny table.
- saisumimen3, on 10/12/2007, -6/+75I heard from a reliable source that the Internet is some kind of series of tubes.
- jgreene777, on 10/12/2007, -2/+17kinda like web 1.0 was all "in a ball." everyone was slapping their logo on a nice 3d ball and callling it web ready...
- fritzn, on 10/12/2007, -14/+3"The internet is on a super shiny table" ...Heh. Awesome...
- jcembree, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8@jgreene777
you mean like the new at&t logo?
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/e/ea/Att_new_logo.png - masamunecyrus, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Pffft, this AT&T logo is better (courtesy of boingboing):

- magic6435, on 10/12/2007, -20/+1opps multi post sorry
- etchalon, on 10/12/2007, -35/+4lol @ "i dont understand why do they all have reflections?"
- CatalystGhost, on 10/12/2007, -3/+26lol @ "I can't hit the reply button."
- sarasweet, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1lol @ etch getting scolded by diggers. and darn, i was hoping etch actually said that.
- BadassCheese, on 10/12/2007, -6/+43Some of those are really good.
- etchalon, on 10/12/2007, -41/+6lol @ "Some of those are really good."
i can't imagine any of us spent more than 5 minutes per.- estvir, on 10/12/2007, -5/+45Use the reply button, it was put there for a purpose. I'd normally ignore it, but you've done it more than once, in the same story.
- chriskzoo, on 10/12/2007, -5/+44Your guide to a "Web 2.0" logo: Type your company name in the proper font in Photoshop. Add gradient from top to bottom with preferred colors. Add reflection if desired.
- jonezy, on 10/12/2007, -12/+33you also need to use trebuchet and include the beta stamp when possible.
- sapo916, on 10/12/2007, -1/+28Thanks, Im off to make my millions now.
- kodeiko, on 10/12/2007, -5/+11Why is jonezy being buried? THAT is the truth!
- pintong, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Which is why most of these logos suck. Don't forget to add "Beta" to all of them, or use the same colors as Flickr!
- outbreak, on 10/12/2007, -5/+17i knocked out about 10 of those in under 10 minutes haha.
- Archeologist, on 10/12/2007, -12/+2Digg effect is taking it's toll at around 70 diggs...

- dfritzcs, on 10/12/2007, -10/+6damn... i wanted to regurgitate it first and hope to be dugg up... why do all my ideas get thought of by someone else first?
- bgmccollum, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3@spectre_25gt

- goteki, on 10/12/2007, -16/+1Ahaha ***** man yayhooray got shut down... funny how all the ***** digg dudes fall for "web 2.0" shizn. Yayhooray ftw!
- clojita, on 10/12/2007, -9/+4Did digg just mess up the yh server? Cause Ive got a walmart 2.0 logo and I cant post it. I cant tell if its just normal yh downtime (like every other day), or if digg just borked it.

Digg effect IN ACTION!- goteki, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5Actually not a poor website, guys behind threadless.com own it...
- mecole21, on 10/12/2007, -27/+3why the hell is there no swoosh on the nike logo... like nike would ever lose it...

- martoon, on 10/12/2007, -0/+36Not loading for me. I guess I'll have to wait for the web 3.0 versions
- feverish, on 10/12/2007, -6/+1yep, just messed it up, unbelievable. Skinnycorp got owned by digg :(
unbelievable? This happens with everyday traffic. - jakatak, on 10/12/2007, -14/+4it's amazing how crappy servers still are today. One digg and a server crashes. I see it all the time on digg. Reach deep into your pocket and fork out $10 more a month for a real hosting company.
- Mike89, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4$10 more.. Mm, yeah. Links please?
- peskypescado, on 10/12/2007, -11/+2Corral Cache link: http://www.yayhooray.com.nyud.net:8090/thread/90661/yh-collab-redesign-famous-logos-in-web-2-0-format

- TheSiz, on 10/12/2007, -14/+2what the hell is the "web 2.0 format"?
- Dmatias, on 10/12/2007, -0/+10its the format where websites don't prepare for the digg/ slashdot effect.
- daGUY, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Nike one is amazing. Too bad I can't get the rest of the thread to load, I'm curious to see what other ones got submitted.

- dSlifer, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3That's probably my most favorite thing I've seen all day, very awesome of you!
- MicrowavedH2o, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1how do you do it?

- eplawless, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3@MJRehrig
In Adobe Illustrator:
new white layer w/ clipping mask (see transparency palette) w/ black to white gradient
In Adobe Photoshop:
new vector layer w/ fill = 0% w/ white gradient overlay 100% -> 0% (see blending options) w/ clipping mask over layer below

Islam - God loves you :)
Buddhist - God loves you :) - CatalystGhost, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Wow, you'd think they'd actually have the sense to do a bit of research for something like that... I can see some extremist groups getting really miffed about that...
