Gap has a new logo and no one seems too pleased. They've ditched their white-serif-on-navy design in favor of black Helvetica on white, with a small (
some might say pointless) navy box in the right hand corner. Already, the new logo has
garnered hatred around the Internet.
I don't blame Gap for wanting in on the Helvetica craze, but I agree
with critics that there's something a) boring and b) very 1990s about
the new logo. And I'm not surprised at the less-than-warm reception:
hating redesigns is a favorite pastime of graphic designers and casual
consumers alike.
Here are five other logo redesigns that have gone over
badly.

We've all heard that drinking 8 glasses of water a day is essential for your health. And how many of us actually achieve that goal? I think I'm up to 6 glasses a day. However, a doctor recently wrote in the
British Medical Journal that
drinking 6-8 glasses a day is "thoroughly debunked nonsense" especially since there is no scientific evidence to support this theory.
Sure, you don't medically have to drink 8 glasses of H2O, but drinking at least 1.5 liters a day is still good for flushing out toxins and keeping your body running smoothly. I hear many people complaining that water is boring and tasteless, so here's a list of easy and cheap ways to jazz up your water.

Reds and whites and blends, oh my! For all of you wine enthusiasts, the word "Oenophobia" wouldn't ever exist in your vocabulary, because it means: to have an intense fear or hatred of wine. Keeping that in mind, you may want to expand your wordsmith ways with a new addition, Oenophilia, meaning "the love of wine."
