Logos - Holiday and Events – Google style!
http://www.google.com/logos/
Over the years, doodles on the Google homepage have made searching on Google more fun and enjoyable for its users worldwide. When doodles were first created, nobody had anticipated how popular and integral they would become to the Google search experience. Nowadays, many users excitedly anticipate the release of each new doodle and some even collect them!
Doodles are known as the decorative changes that are made to the Google logo to celebrate holidays, anniversaries, and the lives of famous artists and scientists. Whether it is the beginning of Spring, Albert Einstein's birthday, or the 50th anniversary of understanding DNA, the doodle team never fails to find artistic ways to celebrate these unique events.
Having a little bit of fun with the corporate logo by redesigning it from time to time is unheard of at many companies but at Google, it is a part of the brand. While the doodle is primarily a fun way for the company to recognize events and notable people, it also illustrates the creative and innovative personality of the company itself.
How did the idea for doodles originate?

So how does the annual event Burning Man relate with the invention of the Doodle 4 Google? Google Doodle was not intended. It just happened. Before leaving for the Burning Man, Larry and Sergey were struck with an idea to tell their users somehow that where they were. Larry and Sergey designed the Google Doodle, where they incorporated the rendering of the man in the second ‘o’ of Google. That doodle said the following: ” Yes, We’re all at Burning Man “.
Subsequent Google Doodles were designed by an outside contractor, until Larry and Sergey asked then-intern Dennis Hwang to design a logo for Bastille Day in 2000.yepper,.........they DO !

When you see a symbol, you almost instantly understand something fundamental and profound about what’s behind that particular symbol. A well-conceived corporate logo, for instance, reveals important information about the company. The logo often has nothing to do with what the firm makes or does, but the company’s mission and how its principals want the business to be perceived by the world. Symbols are visual metaphors for what they represent.When you see a symbol, you almost instantly understand something fundamental and... more

How can QR CODES help find Missing or Abducted Children and People? Just POINT, SCAN and SHARE information with your Smartphone directly from a Missing Children / People Posters "QR CODE" (Quick Response) with everyone online. Using your Smart phone and FREE downloadable apps provided by iPhone, Blackberry or cellular providers, QR 2D Matrix Barcodes are becoming a mainstream here in the US and Canada. QR Code, short for Quick Response, are relatively new to North American markets but are already used in Japan, Asia and Europe.
QR CODES on Missing Children Posters:

Please JOIN our FACEBOOK Group :
http://www.facebook.com/Watkins.Missing.Children
The implementation of QR Codes on Missing Children Posters by National Missing Children / People Program Services and non-government organizations (NGO) can help the public to disseminate and share information directly from a printed wall mounted missing poster, displayed in many box stores, supermarkets and at borders crossings across United States and in Canada, onto online social networking groups. The use of this Mobil technology will help to find missing children or missing people world-wide.
The use of QR 2D Matrix Codes on marketing materials, advertisements or posters, eliminates the need to manually write down or type into a smartphone the URL displayed and instantly connects the user to information or online content such as websites, vCards, Youtube Video's, URL's, Facebook, Twitter or can even Downloads Files.
Stephen Watkins, a father searching for his two international Missing / Abducted sons, is making the suggestion to the RCMP and National Missing Children NGO's in Canada to incorporate and implement the new QR CODE barcode technology on all National Missing Children / People Posters.
Mr. Watkins has not seen or heard from his two sons in over 2-years. Alexander & Christopher Watkins were Internationally Abducted into the United States then to Europe by their non-custodial Mother, Edyta ( Ustaszewski / Ustaszewska ) Watkins. She used a Canceled / Revoked Canadian Passport to enter the United States and then board an airline and fly to Germany with the boys. She may have been possibly assisted by her father, the boy's grandfather, who is currently appearing before the Criminal Courts in Ontario, Canada. Police believe the boys are still in Europe and possibly in the countries of Poland, German or Austria. There have been NO reported sightings and they can be anywhere in Europe.
"I desperately need the Publics help to locate my missing sons. I am hoping that QR CODES will help make it easier for the Public to share my son's information."
This new technology, along with social online networking in addition that we know North Americans are adopting Smartphones faster than any other form of mobile device, provides the ability to share Missing Children / People cases right from a printed "Missing Children Poster" which has been same since the first poster was created in 1874 for Charlie Brewster Ross.
This improves the current Missing Children / Person Poster format which has been around for over 100 years and integrates it with today's technology.
"It is a parents worst nightmare and there is almost nothing worst than having your children go missing."
Please help to share all QR CODES found on missing children / people posters with your online social networks. If you see a missing person, please report to police as soon as possible. You would want others to do the same if it was your child or family member missing. Together we can find our loved ones. Thank you!

Marketers say that one of the most important marketing tools is a good logo design. It not only provides an easy to recognize identity for your business but also communicates who you are. That’s why every company considering creating or buying a logo design should know the criteria that make for an effective logo. The first feature of a good and effective logo is that it can immediately “grab” viewer’s attention. Your logo should have an immediate impact and hold the viewer’s attention. However, if you did manage to catch the viewer’s eye – that doesn’t necessary mean you are doing good. There might always be a hidden penis you cannot see at first sight.

With over 143 million subscribers in India, Bharti Airtel is the leading player in the Indian telecom sector. Airtel rebranded its identity, which became the master brand for all 19 countries including 16 countries in Africa (where it acquired Zain Telecom), and Bangladesh (where it acquired Warid Telecom). Company has come up with a new logo design and signature tune, and it will spend Rs 300 crores globally to market it. The new logo does not have the capital ‘A’, but the red colour will still be dominant in the new brand. The red colour, of the brand, continues to represent heritage, energy and passion. Also the new logo has lot similarities with the logo of erstwhile Zain Telecom.
In the course of expanding internationally with the acquisition of companies like Zain and Warid, Airtel is trying to gain an international image in the minds of all the users in various countries it operates in. It is the first time in 15 years that company is changing its logo. The acquisition of Zain added about 40 million subscribers from African countries. Zain is the market leader in 10 countries among the 15 countries acquired by Airtel and on second position in 4 countries. Because of the huge subscriber base in new market, change in logo has been done keeping in mind its synchronization with the logo of Zain. The purpose of the synchronization is to give the sense of continuity to African subscribers (of erstwhile Zain) in form of new logo of Airtel (which is very similar with that of Zain). The operations of Sudan and Morocco will be continued by Zain.

The people’s reactions on new logo are not very positive. According to a research, more than 50% of people disliked the image change which was evident from the comments on public sites like Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin etc., and through poll by research companies. The negative comments show that the logo is “non appealing”, it misses the old connect; and design is a copied version of logos of other companies like Vodafone, Videocon, Uninor, etc. Also many people have criticized the company for investing such a huge amount in rebranding, instead of improving their customer service and network availability and their readiness for 3G services. While the comments from the social media are overflowing with the negative comments, traditional media have positive or neutral responses. Approximately 74% of news reports and articles seem to be in favour of the new face of Airtel.
The possible loss of unhappy customers in India, who are disappointed with the rebranding of Airtel, will be easily offset by the acquisition of subscribers of Zain in Africa. Only the future will tell what will be the impact of this rebranding exercise on the Airtel’s fortune, and how will the competitors respond to this move by Airtelhttp://www.blog.365businessdays.com/post/2010/12/07/Airtele28099s-rebranding-e28093-a-g... more

http://www.blog.365businessdays.com/post/2010/12/06/Irish-Economic-Crisis.aspx
Ireland economy’s phenomenal growth during 1993 to 2007 (also known as “Celtic Tiger”) was largely based on the success of the economic model driven by factors such as banks providing cheap credit, low cost base, educated work force etc. With Ireland’s entry to European Union (EU), many foreign companies established their businesses in the country. In a bid to promote foreign inflows, Irish Government introduced favourable tax structure for international transfer pricing, liberal taxation policy etc. Irish wages grew 5 times faster as compared to that of European Union from 1997 to 2007. New banking model introduced by the government by the name “originate to distribute” (a process that allows banks to increase their lending base without violating the government norms. The banks in this model make loans and do not hold them, but lend them to other financial institutions as securitised asset package.) increased the liquidity of banks to a record level. By the introduction of subsidies and investment capital, Ireland was able to attract companies like Microsoft, Dell, and Intel to the Irish market. Approximately 14000 jobs were created in Finance, law and accounting fields in 1990s. Export-driven industries, such as software, medical devices, biotechnology and real estate were the key drivers of the Ireland economy before the crisis. Industrial peace, trouble-less relationship with the nations etc, all was resulting in a new positive attitude and economic growth in the country.
The dream run ended n 2008, when country faced economic meltdown due to the various factors such as overspending by Government, loose taxation policy, high dependency on real estate and construction industry, and blanket guarantee provided by all banks. The country’s GDP growth rate started falling drastically since 2008. Ireland’s GDP growth was 6% in 2007 to 1.6% in 2008, -3% in 2009 and -8% in 2010 so far. Easy regulations framework of the government had led to high lending to the real estate and construction sector. The demand for real estate was on the peak in 2006, when the economy shifted away from manufacturing to services and real estate. After the global recession of 2008-09, domestic demand fell by 16 percent, investment collapsed by over 40 percent, and housing prices plunged 30 percent. Investors started backing out from the real estate and construction projects as they started seeing Ireland as a country with huge lending risk. Due to this, developers and other related firms in real estate industry began to fall behind on their loan repayments and started losing money which led to record bank losses. The fall in the tax rich activities such as demand for housing and real estate caused major drop in tax revenue.
As the economy of Ireland was gaining momentum by 2007, so did the size of government expenditure. Even after the downfall in 2008, Government didn’t stop spending for three years. Spending by the Government rose from €27bn in 1998 to €76bn in 2008. The government of Ireland borrows approximately 2.6 billion on monthly basis to fund its day to day expenses. Government’s debt levels have also increased enormously from 24.8% of GDP in 2007 to 44.1% in 2008 and 64.5% in 2009. If the same trend continues, soon the country’s borrowings will be over 100% of GDP.
During the good times, when the country’s fiscal condition was strong, Irish banks provided cheap credit to people who in some cases couldn't pay it back. Irish banks borrowed huge amount of money from the money markets, and in return loaned this money to investors. After the job loss and monetary losses, Irish investors couldn’t pay back the money borrowed from the bank, and banks couldn’t repay the investors on the money markets. Since Investors have lost the confidence in the economy and consider Ireland as a risky destination to invest, now they charge almost twice of the previous lending rates.
Major banks in the country became insolvent and unable to lend. Collapse in the tax revenues lead to fiscal deficit of 11.7% of the GDP for 2009. The composition of taxes shifted from the stable sources such as income tax, excise duties etc. to cyclic taxes such as corporation tax, stamp duties, service tax etc. Cyclic taxes were increased from 8% in 1980s to 30% in 2006. The cyclic taxes are based on transactions. The number of transaction fell drastically during the crisis and tax revenue fell by almost 14 per cent, with fall in cyclically sensitive taxes, at 36 per cent. Had Ireland tax structure was less cyclic based, the loss in revenue would have been much lower.
The crisis led to about 65,000 people leaving Ireland in 2009, and it is estimated that the number may increase to 120,000 in 2010. The rate of unemployment reached 13.7 %, a 16-year high in June, 2010 and is expected to reach 18.5% by 2011. Country’s stock exchange which was flourishing at 10,000 points in 2007 came to 1,987 points in 2009, a 14-year low. Total exports of goods and services from Ireland in 2009 fell by 1% to €154bn.
The European Union has agreed to loan approximately $89.4 billion to Ireland to help it come out of its massive crisis. The government is now taking the majority control of the affected banks like Allied Irish Banks and Anglo Irish Bank Corp. The EU/IMF has put strict conditions on its loans and may require Ireland to consider tax increases and spending cuts. As a result of these measures, situation has improved in Ireland. Recently Ireland recorded the second largest trade surplus in EU countries in last six months (January – June 2010) by exporting €9,327m to the US and imported just €4,086m. Ireland is only surpassed by Germany in the EU nations. It is the time for the people of Ireland to wake up and force the Government to bail out the corrupt banking institutions, start cutting their public expenditure budget and to strategise the future effectively.http://www.blog.365businessdays.com/post/2010/12/06/Irish-Economic-Crisis.aspx... more

When gay tastemaker "The A List" announced it was casting a Los Angeles edition, infoMania's "That's Gay" correspondent Bryan Safi knew just what to do. He filmed this audition tape, even though he's basically a shoo-in. How could the Logo network not take a man who shops at both Target AND The Gap, a jetsetter who splurges daily on two venti iced green teas at Starbucks to fill the cupholders in his Ford Probe? See if Bryan can make his dream of appearing on a real TV show come true. (Oops, sorry; we forgot about infoMania.)
