NBC Gets A New Logo

[InformationGeek]

And what a lame logo at that.  It barely counts as a logo as well.  Yeah, it isn't big news, but it is news what at least doesn't deal with politics or celebrities doing unimportant things so that's a plus.

Wonder how much they paid somebody, and how many potential designs were created, just so they could finally decide to take the space out of their name and print it in a slightly-embellished sans-serif font.

Is it just me, or would a lot of companies be on much sounder footing financially if they canned most of the idiots getting paid huge salaries to waste time and money on boneheaded stuff like this? Would seem a lot more logical than laying off people who get paid considerably less for far more useful work.

It sort of reminds me of this:

The only thing that marketing people do a good job of selling is their own services.  Quite a business to be in - even if sales go down after the new advertising campaign, who's to say it isn't just the economy, or a competitor having a big sale at the same time, or maybe the market is oversaturated.

RIP to the peacock.  I liked that guy.

Companies might also have more money for their employees if they wouldn't spend 100,000 dollars and up re-decorating the offices of their CEO's every year.. another waste of money.
