Windows 8 logo revealed
No surprise. This is appropriately Metro-y:
The design logic is all explained on the Windows Team Blog: Redesigning the Windows Logo.
The post includes a brief trip down memory lane. (Spoiler: the Windows logo used to be a window, then it turned into a flag, now it’s a window again!)
Microsoft says its goal was “for the new logo to be humble, yet confident. Welcoming you in with a slight tilt in perspective and when you change your color, the logo changes to reflect you.”
Feels kind of Scandinavian to me.

I would say the logo is more Metro UI, a bit like the top part of a Windows Phone 7.
Kinda plain and boring, like the new UI…
it looks good, I like it!
anyway its a logo, its not like i care much about it. it wont change the fact that win8 is an amazing piece of OS. of course i haven’t tried Consumer Preview, but im sure it will be amazing, for mouse and keyboard and touch.
now its again a window, and its a nice and simple logo, i don’t know what people expected, its not like it had to have million gradients and 3d things, but oh well
now its about waiting for consumer preview to see how it actually looks like.
I’m a big Windows fan, but I have to say, I’m very disappointed with this Logo. Terribly boring and unsophisticated. I hope they change their mind.
