Microsoft Unveils a New Look | |
|
||
| Time: 12:52 EST/17:52 GMT | News Source: Microsoft | Posted By: Robert Stein | ||

It’s been 25 years since we’ve updated the Microsoft logo and now is the perfect time for a change. This is an incredibly exciting year for Microsoft as we prepare to release new versions of nearly all of our products. From Windows 8 to Windows Phone 8 to Xbox services to the next version of Office, you will see a common look and feel across these products providing a familiar and seamless experience on PCs, phones, tablets and TVs. This wave of new releases is not only a reimagining of our most popular products, but also represents a new era for Microsoft, so our logo should evolve to visually accentuate this new beginning. The Microsoft brand is about much more than logos or product names. We are lucky to play a role in the lives of more than a billion people every day. The ways people experience our products are our most important “brand impressions”. That’s why the new Microsoft logo takes its inspiration from our product design principles while drawing upon the heritage of our brand values, fonts and colors. | ||

Lot of cool stuff happening at MS these days -
outlook.com - This is awesome xbox – more and more content providers - Who needs Apple TV Windows 8 - I like it Phone 8 - I can't wait Office 15 - Lync much improved Surface - I'm intrigued, but am disappointed that RT doesn't have stylus and neither the RT nor Pro will have 4G. All in all, it's good to be a fanboy! |

Well - given that they seem to be all in on this to look (metro), I am fine with it. I think it's clean and subtle.

As long as it doesn't look like used fruit, I'm happy. ;-) This post was edited by donpacman on Saturday, August 25, 2012 at 04:37. |

Guys, I gotta ask this..overall do you really like the new look?
Look at any of the new pages that have been "metro-ized" eg: http://office.microsoft.com/en-ca/word/create-easy-to-scan-agendas-and-programs-FX102640750.aspx To me they just look like pages where the stylesheet failed to load. ...Speaking of new looks.....ActiveWIN...where is the new design?

#6: Yes. I'm sick of being smacked over the head with graphic elements. Windows 8 UI is clean, elegant and subtle.
Its's Chocolate and Peppermint - It's very refreshing... It's a Junior Mint! |
