♥ Of Microsoft graphics and iconography posted September 10, 2009, 5:23 pm
Here’s a rather nice collage of various Windows related iconography– Office, accompanied of course by the Word icon, which has become synonymous with anything to do with word processing, sometimes even more than that; then what I presume to be Media, represented by the iconic blue “E” of Internet Explorer (people have come to know this as the Internet itself, that’s how much that stupid E transcends), and various random appearances of the Windows Media Player icon as well; then there is but of course, Windows Live Messenger, formerly known as MSN; lastly to join the Microsoft army of giant catalysts, Facebook. Strangely enough, Microsoft does not directly own Facebook (they invested quite a bit moolah and is one of the major partner advertisers), but Facebook has become so important that it’s there along with the three other pillars of Microsoft’s dominating products.
