Re: Curl hearts Mozilla
#42Wow, people are really hating on this in the comments. Makes me wonder, are there any examples of new brand identity that has been generally well received at first?
The big things I remember is Uber, Instagram, Google and Yahoo, and I don't remember those being followed by any nice words.
Looking back I consider both Google and Yahoo to have been an improvement. I'm on the fence about Instagram. Not sure if I like the new one, but also not sure if sticking with the old one would make the service look dated. I still think Uber is really bad.

People don't like change, and it's never been easier to talk about how much specific changes bother some people, and find others who agree with them. Meanwhile, people who don't really care what a logo looks like continue to say nothing as they used to.

#45For prior art of using :// in branding, here's the IT consulting company I used to run in the early 2000's: https://www.sunesis.com.au/ They haven't changed their website since I sold out in 2003, quite an astonishing thing for a website. You can see, though, that the graphic designer got a bit confused and reversed the order to //:. He insisted on leaving it that way because design reasons.
"Our Strength in Web-Based Projects" :/
I think you mean ://

> how this could lead to possible confusion I sincerely doubt it. There are two groups in the world: Group A: What the hell is a Mozilla? Group B: knows the difference between cURL and Mozilla
Reading some of the stories about users finding mention of cURL in software acknowledgements and emailing for support makes me think that there is a Group C that could easily be confused
I think your Group C, "easily confused", probably has substantial overlap with Group A, "what is a Mozilla?".

What difference does it make?
Where bug reports go.
That's pretty funny.

#48> Also, when talking and comparing brands and their recognition and importance in a global sense, curl is of course nothing next to Mozilla. You're too humble, Daniel. cURL might not be on the lips of of the general public as much as Mozilla/Firefox is, but curl is an important piece of code touching the lives of probably everybody, whether they know it or not.
i use curl everyday. i use Mozilla maybe once a month. its absolutely no contest which is more important to me

But what about the third who may see a cURL logo after the new Mozilla logo and say, "oh, I didn't realize cURL was a Mozilla project."
No one even knew curl had a logo until today. I'm guessing 80% of the people that use it have never been to the website.
Ironically I discovered it yesterday when using it to trigger outbound Twilio voice calls from a Windows desktop (for testing the local Lync client). The Windows binary has the logo.
(Off-topic, gotta change from ' to " for the example code to work on Windows. I should mention that to Twilio...)
