Google Chrome’s Logo Looks Like…

September 3rd, 2008

Google’s snazzy new browser, Chrome, is slick both in looks and performance. But look at that logo. It kind of looks like…

the Death Star?

Hal 9000 from 2001: A Space Odyssey?

HAL 9000

(via Jaireh aka exuberantfool)

the Windows Media Player 10 icon?

(via me)

Samus Aran’s Morph Ball from Metroid?

(via Metro Mapper)

the eyes of the Martians in War of the Worlds?

The Martians Eyes from the original War of the Worlds

(via John Wohn aka JDub)

the game Simon?

Simon the game

(via Going Like Sixty)

a Poké ball from Pokemon?

(via various people)

So as you can see Google was inspired by a multitude of geeky things when it came up with the logo for it’s latest project. Let’s hope it wasn’t really inspired by Pokemon. Eck!

[...] I am not the only one who thinks they look a little similar. Of course how many combinations of Google’s primary colors [...]
