PowerPoint Logos: From Pac Man to Canada
Friday thought: last year, I noted that the PowerPoint logo looked like Pac Man going after goblins. However, I think the icon really depicts a pie chart trying to gobble up bullet points.
This year, as I work on PowerPoint presentations, I glance at the new PowerPoint 2007 logo in my taskbar and think, "Is that the flag of Canada? Wait, no. It's the new PowerPoint icon."
However, one might also think that in this new Power Point logo, the bullet points are trying to eat that pie chart!
(Although the flag of Canada is red, when the logo is scrunched down to taskbar size, the new PowerPoint logo looks like a waving flag to me.)
I guess we see what we want to see.
