Microsoft has been making waves driving their new Metr–erm, Modern UI... into their products. It's flatter, cleaner, and more digital in every sense. We actually like the way it looks. (Sorry Apple, the crass skeuomorphic UIhas been making everyone's eyes itchy... Even Jony doesn't seem to think much of it.)
Now they've brought the Segoe-y tile-y look to Microsoft itself, which hasn't seen a new logo in 25 years. The logo is very reflective of past Windows logos, with their current one not being so popular. Early reactions, this time, are generally positive.
Exciting stuff.
