About

I think it’s important for students to keep up with current events. This weblog serves as a historical record of articles that I’ve shared with my students. I curate articles that focus on technology, software, development, design, usability, security, computer science, interactive design, and more.

Following the ‘G’ and Gemini icons, Google is updating its logos for the AI era. Here’s a sneak peek at the new gradient icons for Google Photos and Maps. The gradient G also expanded beyond Search to represent “all of Google” (the brand and company).
