the world's best search engine is stuck with an average at best logo. this unfortunate result is probably due to a rush to get the brilliant concept to market. another possibility is that it was designed by a programmer, which usually ends up looking like some of the 2s in our critique list. the name, google, is perfect for the concept, though the word was originally spelled googol. it is the word that represents the number 1 followed by 100 zeros. and the way they incorporated the pages of search results into the 'o's is genius, but the logo still suffers. the font is a basic palatino-esque font called catull, which has nothing altered to make it uniquely google. it's just the font. the simplicity matches the website style, but it doesn't say much for the designer. 3d effect is bad t

this is an absolutely incredible interactive toy. i won't spoil your fun by giving you details on how to play. just experiment with everything and realize you can use the choices at the bottom to change your "drawing tool" and rate that things happen. i guarantee you will play with this for hours and hours.

not pr0n is essentially a puzzle game -- a very hard puzzle game. but it is also very addictive and a lot of fun. each new page has a puzzle to be solved to get to the next one. there is a forum where you can find subtle hints to help you when you and stuck -- and you will get stuck. the site is very enjoyable and you can waste an enormous amount of time there.

imagine the chaos and the fun of having dozens of people trying to spell out words with virtual letter magnets on a virtual refrigerator. actually, you don't have to imagine it -- just give it a try and you will have a ball wasting more time than you will care to admit.

if you have not experienced the incredible graphics and engaging point and click game play of samorost you must give it a try. there are a limited number of levels, so the danger of wasting lots of time is reduced, but there is no time wasting that is so creative unless ...

From the Internet to the iPod, technologies are transforming our society and empowering us as speakers, citizens, creators, and consumers. When our freedoms in the networked world come under attack, the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) is the first line of defense. EFF broke new ground when it was founded in 1990—well before the Internet was on most people's radar—and continues to confront cutting-edge issues defending free speech, privacy, innovation, and consumer rights today. From the beginning, EFF has championed the public interest in every critical battle affecting digital rights.

Yeah, I get it, all the different languages make this puzzle and it all comes together because of you. That''s great. It''s a horrible logo. Simplicity is the ultimate sohpistication and Wikipedia''s logo ain''t got it. Try reproducing this in an icon or on a hat.
