Anyone else noticing the lack of creativity in social media and iphone icons? I noticed one trend in particular, with the letter “f.” I dug up a few I could find and I am curious to see if anyone even knows the company behind each of them (except for the blatantly obvious one, of course):
Without googling, go ahead and take a guess – I’m especially curious to see if anyone can guess the pink one.
The point: Your icon should be something memorable – when someone sees it, they instantly know whom the icon belongs to. Using the first letter of your company name only works for the biggies out there, so until you are one of them, use a symbol, image, color, shape or something to show us who you are.
