I have always been fortunate to have the right support and the most awesomest people around me, at every stage in my life, and even more so when I needed these pillars of strength to stand by me, besides me and with me.

I want to dedicate this song, to all the awesome people in my life.

Do I make you proud by Taylor Hicks, winner of American Idol #5.

Microsoft Unveils a New Look

So, MIcrosoft announced a new logo.

Was it just me, or did they integrate an implementation of the Windows logo as part of their corporate symbol?

The logo has two components: the logotype and the symbol. For the logotype, we are using the Segoe font which is the same font we use in our products as well as our marketing communications. The symbol is important in a world of digital motion (as demonstrated in the video above.) The symbol’s squares of color are intended to express the company’s diverse portfolio of products.

The video on the same page tries to associate each colour with a major product (Windows, Office, XBOX.. etc..) but it does not address or dismiss the fact that that the colours and the order of presentation is consistent with the brand for ‘Windows’.

Yeah, ‘diverse’, if you have only one product..

I always dreaded waking up to this day.

You made the whole world rise each time you made that rock-star appearance, at every Apple event, and everywhere else you were.

Now you rise above us all, after transforming the trade and changing our lives, is so many ways.

You have been the single biggest influence in my life. You changed how I worked, how I lived and how I saw things.

I missed seeing you in person. And I will remember you, as millions would, every time we touch almost any of your wonderful products, current and future.

Bye Steve.
