Microsoft sees 2012 as a year of rebirth. And so on Thursday it unveiled its first new logo since 1987. From the Microsoft blog:
     "The Microsoft brand is about much more than logos or product names. We are lucky to play a role in the lives of more than a billion people every day. The ways people experience our products are our most important “brand impressions.” That’s why the new Microsoft logo takes its inspiration from our product design principles while drawing upon the heritage of our brand values, fonts and colors.
