Google and the tyranny of good design

It seems that every successful web company has a quirk about their website and surprisingly many of those quirks trace back to ugly design. Adrian Shaughnessy explores the issue of good design and Google’s logo and provides many choice quotes to go along with his analysis.

…Google’s financial gigantism places it alongside some of the biggest corporations in the world. Odd then, that it should have a folksy logo that looks more like a school project than the mark of a global corporation.

Hopefully I can will myself to explore this issue more indepth because I had a million thoughts while reading the entry. Now I just need to put them into words on the screen.
