Wow. I honestly have not been to yahoo.com in years and there is still so much going on on that page that I almost had a panic attack.

It's so busy, I have no clue what I'm supposed to be looking at. Things are popping up as I move the mouse, there's a video playing, there are tabs in the middle, down the left, on top, weather, stock quotes. Forget the logo, fix the site!

Actually, a new one every day for a month: http://yahoo.tumblr.com/post/57582020969/kicking-off-30-days...

Well, I hope they nuke this one off their potential future logo replacements, because it's honestly terrible. It barely has any personality.

Of course they'll start weak to avoid raising expectations and make the ultimate reveal look better.

I think I've found a leak of the final winner:

I know plenty of people will make "rearranging the deckchairs on the Titanic" comments, but it's not like doing this will have diverted huge amounts of talent that would be used making an amazing app or something.

Their old logo looked very outdated. Apparently there are 30 days until we see the final new one (?!) so I'll reserve judgement, but a little rebranding could be good for Yahoo at this point.
