Google conspiracy theory!

    I shall repost this, since some people didn't catch on...

    My point is, its a bit strange how these guys (and perhaps more) use the same color schemes in their logos. Microsoft with MSN and Windows, Ebay and Google.

    The same company behind it all!??!? I doubt it, worth pointing out though.

    I think you are wasting a lot of time, and also running the risk of being banned (since you re-posted a thread that was closed as useless). :rolleyes:

    Good thought, but there are more important things than colors on a logo ;)

    What's strange about using the primary colors?

    Red, Green & Blue are the primary colors of light/addition.
    Red, Blue & Yellow are the primaries of reflection/subtraction.

    The only way to get more contrast on a white background is
    to use black, and they do, but for the content/main text.

    I would say they use the same colors because those colors make people feel happy and there are probably studies done around those colors. 3 of those colors are primary and stand out very nicely: blue, red, and yellow. But to answer your question, no, they're not the same company, although they may have the same shareholders. :)

    There's a well fundamented theory, I heard from Alex Jones, tha says, Microsoft is an IBM Company. Because of US regulations, IBM cannot build computers and software at the same time. So IBM hired Bill Gates and gave him a lot of ingeniers, support and so. The 'romantic' story of Bill Gates starting his company in a garage is false. (And I believe Google founders history is also a lie) This theory says Bill Gates has Melinda and Bill Gates foundation which invest millions of dollars to esterilized people in Africa and third world. Gates' father is co-funder of Parent Parenthood Foundation.

    There simply aren't many colours to pick from. Have you thought of writing a screenplay based on this consiracy theory?

    What I like best about this conspiracy theory is the idea that after conspiring to form a conspiracy, the conspirators can't keep it secret but have to then give a CLUE to the wise that this is what they've done - by the careful choice of logo colours - that well-known indicator of a conspiracy :)

    Weird. But you really opened my eyes. I've also concluded the following based on your logic

    1. CocaCola are ruled by Communists(Red).
    2. Santa is the leading Communist.
    3. Nokia, Walmart and General Electric are part of a conspiracy (blue logo colors).
    4. Pepsi controls America (Red, white and blue colors).

    Hence we have a great battle between Pepsi and Cocacola - which is nothing more than the Communists versus America - only in disguise. Be afraid.....be very afraid!!!!
