Looks a bit London 2012.
I dunno what to think about Bing. I use it about 3 times a year, to search for "Opera", "Chrome" or "Ninite". Like most, I have no problem with Google and no cause to changeover.
On the other hand, I respect that there is a need for competition in this sector and Bing is a credible source of competition (even if the most searched term on Bing is "Google").
I don't think rebranding it every couple of years will help its cause, but then I don't know what could possibly help it.
Another High Street Rebrand
I always feel slightly guilty searching on 'Bing' for 'Google'.
The result they give for 'Google' is so good and nicely put together - and offered in such good faith - that I feel like I'm asking my dog to fetch me its implement of execution.
Also it's patently obvious from the results that most people are searching on Bing FOR Google, but most people are searching on Google ABOUT Bing...

The only thing I use Bing for is it's maps, which were formerly Multimap. Much better quality and more accurate than Google Maps, and they have Ordinance Survey ones too
we're a few years off yet, but RBS are disposing of 300-odd branches and will rebrand them as Williams & Glyn: http://www.scotsman.com/business/manage ... -1-3115767
I think they've previously said that it would be RBS branches in Scotland and NatWest branches in England.

It'll be the NatWest branches in Scotland, and the RBS branches in England & Wales. If it happens, that is.
On the subject of RBS, my branch in Edinburgh has new signage sporting a new logo. The arrows remain but 'RBS' has been replaced with 'Royal Bank of Scotland'. I'll try and get a photo in the next couple of days, but imagine the old logo with a new font.
The branch featured on an RBS advert a couple of years ago so it could be some form of concept branch.

Most would be an improvement, but they all look they'd be better suited for VOD services.

a (somewhat D-shaped) play button which we like given our focus on video in recent months. If nothing else, 'play' and the aperture both represent our focus on entertainment and technology.
