I have been reading several articles about how epicly horrible the Bing logo is. This morning I found a site with a “Vent Off” for all those looking to voice their similar opinions.
Here are just a few lovely sentiments:
This logo is just outstandingly and epicly crap.
There is nothing about it that makes sense. Every thing that could be done wrong pretty much has been. The whole personal taste, the beauty is in the eye of the beholder, its subjective doesn’t cut it here.

Oh god. Regardless of what you think of the logo, it looks horrendous there. It falls so short of there target “Live.com” look. The logo looks much better when it’s reversed out on the dark grey, still an exercise in utter boredom though.My guess is that the project lead on this identity was a pain in the ass and kept forcing the designer to dumb down the logo to what you see here. It totally looks like an identity defeated by a clients that THINKS they are creative and thus keeps having you tweak the design until all that’s left is uninspired garbage. Chris is right on, this bing is blah!

As another MS-hater mentioned, the logo must definitely have been made in MS-Paint. Even that, though, doesn’t really manage to justify the shittiness. Depressing on part of Miscrosoft. Hilarious, from ours. Especially that “It is just simply outstandingly epicly crap.”
Awesome!
The poor swished logo. See how it looks before the overdid the horizontal scaling. I wonder a. how much they spent on this and b. what the other logos looked like that were turned away?
