Google favicon
The Google favicon (the little picture next to the browser url) changed from the uppercase G to the lower case g. I’m noticing it is a little similar to a figure 8/infinity sign, but if that was intentional, I think they’re out of luck. My first thought is Apple’s Infinite Loop street.
I’m not sure I like it. I usually equate cursive writing with archaic, fussy, and classy, whereas the G in a square was simple, much like the Google service itself. I think it is emphasized by the blue font — the icon-view of fonts in Windows is a single, fancy letter, usually in blue.
