Google changes logo to better suit mobile devices

AFP, SAN FRANCISCO: Google on Tuesday refreshed its logo to better suit mobile devices that are supplanting desktop computers when it comes to modern Internet lifestyles.
Google’s logo keeps its four-color scheme but shifts to a soft sans-serif font. The company is also replacing the well-known blue lower case “g” icon with an upper-case “G” combining blue, green, red and yellow.
The 17-year-old Internet company is keen to follow users of its online products onto new generations of Internet-linked devices such as smartphones, tablets and watches.
“We’re introducing a new logo and identity family that reflects this reality and shows you when the Google magic is working for you, even on the tiniest screens,” the California-based Internet firm said in a blog post.
“We’ve taken the Google logo and branding, which were originally built for a single desktop browser page, and updated them for a world of seamless computing across an endless number of devices and different
kinds of inputs - such as tap, type and talk.”
