The new logo is meant to reflect the new ways people visit Google |
Google is planning to introduce a new logo today. After unveiling Alphabet, now they are going to update their logo too.
The new Google logo is a bit flatter and softer,which makes it look more modern as compared to the old one. The colors are also same(Blue,Red,Yellow,Green) but lighter.They are also going to change the "g" logo that you can see on
browser tabs. It's now going to be a uppercase "G" with all four colors. You can already see it on Google's homepage where a hand wipes away the old logo and draws the new one(I like that cute animation).
This is going to be the new G |
Now why Google decided to made these changes.These are the biggest changes after 16 years. According to Google's new CEO Sundar Pichai , new logo is going to reflect the new ways people interact with Google. Technology has changed alot in last few years and so does google. Google is no longer a site that you visit on your desktop computer, but it's a collection of sites,apps and other services that you use on your PCs, Smartphones, Chromebooks,Smart-watches, Tablet computers etc.
Small screens are the major concentration of Google. They designed the logo such that it looks great even on the smallest screen. New logo is also small in size(only 305 bytes,compared to existing logo at 14000 bytes) which makes it easier to load on low bandwidth connections.
With this the big goal of Google's ceo Sundar Pichai is to bring internet to the areas that already don't have it.It's a small step but hope it will bring big changes.
