&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;from &lt;img src="http://www.msblog.org/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/microsoft_net-logo1.jpg" alt="" /&gt; into &lt;img src="http://www.msblog.org/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/net-logo.jpg" alt="" /&gt; &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;The following are the blog from the .NET Team about the new logo. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Why did we do it? &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We needed a logo that was in sync with the key values that we want .NET to stand for: consistency, robustness and great user experiences. We also wanted a logo that conformed to the design principles that are driving Microsoft&amp;rsquo;s brand identity evolution and is reflected in newer brands such as Silverlight, Surface and more. Finally, we needed a logo that is more strongly aligned with the portfolio of brands that .NET is most strongly aligned with: Silverlight, Visual Studio and the AppPlat server products. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The result is a design we refer to as the &amp;ldquo;wave.&amp;rdquo; The design is strong, simple and distinctive. The suggestion of the letter &amp;lsquo;N&amp;rsquo; in the design will become instantly recognizable over time as shorthand for the .NET brand name. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#39;s one of many things we&amp;#39;re actively doing to renew our commitment to the future around the overall Rich Platforms we have today. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hope all have fun at PDC2008 and you&amp;#39;ll see glimpses of what I mean there ;) &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Onwards and embrace the new .NET logo!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://msmvps.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=1652087" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category domain="http://msmvps.com/blogs/kenlin/archive/tags/.NET/default.aspx">.NET</category><category domain="http://msmvps.com/blogs/kenlin/archive/tags/MSDN/default.aspx">MSDN</category></item></channel></rss>
