I was never a fan of the old one, but it was memorable, and well, iconic.

I don't mind the new one. I'm curious as to why they went with the second, lowercase G in Google, rather than the well-known uppercase G.

I like the old one much better. This one looks out of place and has a weird background color to it...

Looks more delicate and stylish - but, way to destroy a brand icon! That would be like Nike changing/dismissing the "Swoosh", Adidas the "Three Stripes", Mike the "IntelBank" avatar ...

yup, the new one looks disturbing.

it has absolutely no link to the green/blue/yellow/ font colour of the main "google" word.

maybe its was a hacked job ??? ha
