11/06/2007 @ 23:00 GMT

Isofarro : Isn’t it time to stop the consortium/corporation bashing when talking about web standards? - For webstandards speakers bashing large companies seems to be the cool thing to do.

The logo is still evolving, say designers

11/06/2007 @ 12:00 GMT

Simon Willison : The logo is still evolving, say designers - The logo is still evolving, say designers. The Olympics logo is designed to be “hackable”—which is actually a great idea, but lawyers advised against unveiling that concept at the same time as the abstract shapes.
