What is Digg?41 Comments
- frant1c, on 10/12/2007, -4/+21Noes! Now people won't be sure what this service is actually called! As a result of this uncertainty, they will all immediately switch to some obscure semantic search engine! The Google's logo designer will carry bitter vengeance in his black heart for years before deciding to bomb the headquarters of this new ruler of the search world! And then, everyone will start using Google again and all will go back to normal.
- xtmno3, on 10/12/2007, -2/+16Yes Pat, I'd like to buy a vowel please.
- profOblivion, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7You must be new here.
- dpcdomino, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8Eww...there is googe all over the yellow "O"
- Anrkist, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8Everyone back to Metacrawler..
- Forgery, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8As mentioned on Reddit (http://reddit.com/info/14hou/comments/c14ie3):
"Perhaps a tribute to Debbie Googe, bass player for My Bloody Valentine"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Bloody_Valentine - logstaa, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4'Googe' seems like a word I shouldn't say in front of my grandmother...
- metafore, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4anyone read those comments on the blog?
"Why exactly is google always changing it’s logo? It’s kinda degrading for the human mind, to be pointed to a certain ideology that is not shared by everyone."
i'd die happy if i could punch this douche bag in the kisser. it's so revolting, i refuse to digg on that basis alone. - rockyvirk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3@hodgie
Google bomb has been fixed, go check it out! - bradallen18, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4the "L" is the stem
so it reads GooLge - rodrigo74, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3This is the chance that Altavista has been waiting for all these years.
- Sommerlost, on 10/12/2007, -3/+6Surely this ISN'T what passes for news theses days.
- mnetlucas, on 10/12/2007, -3/+6Ninja.net!!!!!
- RiemannLebesgue, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2You left out the best part:
" I mean for example not everyone eats chocolate on valentines day and some even have diabites… So I don’t know I guess they are concentric on base values and I think it’s wrong to do that " - penneloppy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2To me it looks like gooe, with a messy strawberry in it.
- rick2k, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2WTF is that ninja.net?
i see its google but wtf am i missing something O.o - ramd3z, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2they're probably laughing at all of us. just to see what crazy explanations we can come up with. perhaps it melted away cuz its made of chocolate? (omg i fell into the trap)
- greenlight2001, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2@rudy23
Nice picture clarification :). The L is subtle, but you know its there and in the right place, especially since Google pays someone a lot of coin to design the specialty logos. I think there was a story posted on DIGG about it a while back. I would link it here, but DIGG search is "experiencing a high volume of traffic right now". It's some guy in house who does all the logos himself. - unitedstatians, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2oh! thats googieley!
- r00tus3r, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2not quite, the stem is kinda behind the 'l'. Trust diggers to not appreciate artistic licence.
- KragTheDigger, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Google for 'Googe' and it will ask 'Did you mean: Google ?' anyway :D
~K
PS; maybe it's a logo for dyslexic day ? - rudy23, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Its very subtle. in fact very cool. Here is how the L is supposed to be.

Edit - Greenlight got it. - greenlight2001, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3If you look at the right side of the strawberry, right in the middle, there is a small bar. That makes the "foot" of the L. The stem is the back of the L. The L is there. Apparently no one has an imagination here.
- dinonion, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2The Strawberry looks like a mummified to me.
- ametory, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1The 'g' and 'l' fell in love and became one. :)
- lifendeath, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2The Letter "L" has been given an off today to be with all the Lovers of the world.
If u would have worked in some big organization u would have certianly known that its not a mistake but done purposely, cause they are hell no. of quality checks thru which anytime goes thru bfore gettin published - heifetz, on 10/12/2007, -3/+4everyone bury this lame story.
