Facebook Quietly change its logo~ ICTmagazine

The update is only a refresh of the company’s wordmark, which is the text-only version of its logo used for identifying its brand.

Josh Higgins, Facebook’s Creative Director told brand new that the company “set out to modernize the logo to make it feel more friendly and approachable” and settled on an update instead of a full redesign.

Facebook asked Eric Olson, the designer of Klavika the font used for the original wordmark, to design a new typeface.

Ben Barry, a former designer at Facebook, had also proposed to tweak to facebook workmark in 2012 which were approved by the company but never implemented.

The actual Facebook ‘F’ logo isn’t being changed. You’ll only notice the difference where the full name is used.

Non-stop pursuing of wealth will only turn a person into a twisted being, just l...

Back in November, Microsoft opened up early previews builds for its new mobile Office applications for Android tablets to those willing to sign up and wait for an invitation. After taking on feedback over the past couple of months, Microsoft has announced that it is expanding its preview scheme by releasing its Office applications to everyone directly through the Google Play Store. The new Office software for mobile unifies Android, IOS, and Windows platforms. Previously each platform had to make do with its own apps, meaning that feature sets differed depending on your operating system and updates were often slow and intermittent. By unifying the Office platform, Microsoft hopes to bring updates and new features to users in a timelier manner. There are still a couple of conditions attached to the preview builds though. Firstly, Office is still limited to ARM-based Android tablets with a screen size between 7 and 10.1 inches. Your tablet will also need to be running Ki...
