I am just one little peon mashing on a keyboard. Don't take anything here too seriously. Danielboyle.net is my own personal playground. This is my blog. You can email me at dan @ this domain.
There is a saying in math (specifically, geometry) - all square are rectangles, but not all rectangles are squares. I suppose it's not a math saying, as I've seen it applied to many, many things.
It's applicable to the 2012 London Olympics logo too. Coudal Partners swears it's a good logo. Most of the rest of the design community's reaction can by summed up by John Gruber @ Daring Fireball: 'It's fucking ugly. Not just kind of ugly, but hideously ugly.'
My surround sound receiver died 2 weeks ago. After 6 years of service, my old Aiwa (yes, laugh, get it out of the way) receiver died. Not bad for something bought on sale from best buy (speakers included).
I ended up purchasing a Panasonic receiver to replace it.... and so begins my story of stupid, stupid electronics.
