Hi. I'm the new logo and I work at the Gap. It seems most of you hate me.
I gotta get a new gig and NO this isn't the phone company.
Message from Marka Hansen - President - Gap North America
This past Monday, without a lot of fanfare, we introduced a new logo on our gap.com site, and I wanted to take this opportunity to explain our thinking behind this decision.
I've been president at Gap brand for the past three years, and I've been living and breathing the changes we've been making on our journey to make Gap more relevant to our customers.
You've seen this evolution through...
Please hear me, I still believe this is a capitalistic country and if you produce "it," you have every right to charge for the sweat of your labor. But it's extremely difficult when you first give it away to later start charging especially after years of giving it away under an advertising model.

Are You Twitter Tired?
Well the Tweeting End is Nearer than You Think.
Part One
I know, it's really cool right now to be involved with the world-o-tweets and everybody including my grandmother has a twitter account. She's tweeting away about her favorite denture cleaner, how to cheat better at bridge and Reader Digest's's latest diagnosis of her imagined medical conditions. Now, I love my grandmother but that's just plain scary.
