Its getting to be a bit dull now – it was fun to see a changed logo every so often but now its just silly. I cant remember the last time I actually saw the good old fashioned Google Logo.
That said todays logo made me chuckle:

Reminded me of the whole ‘miserable failure‘ link bomb stuff as a result of the link between the Hungry Caterpillar and Dubya.

Build up something just to see if I can. I know there are far more pressing things I should be doing but I’ve been in the mood for taking it a bit easier for a couple of weeks.

The main thing that I’ve been thinking about recently is whether I can use stock photography/stock images on these websites. I’ve just spent too much money over @ http://www.istockphoto.com (the images were lovely I promise you). But I’m a bit concerned what kind of license I have for these. Can I use these on my sites as images within banners etc? They have some T&C’s @ http://www.istockphoto.com/license.php. But thats all Greek to me.

Any help of this would be appreciated.
