Couldn't wait for tonight, anyway I'll be busy then.
Okay! first I'll ask questions.
Why draw unless it is, really, really artistic?
Why not animations, the web is the perfect place for an animated logo? Static logos are 'passé' just like paper books! Why keep with tradition? Aren't we about change?
Then, I wanted the reader to be suggested without real shape so as not to be limited to a specific type or make of device. We don't only blog about eink, we talk about smartphones, UMPCs, small laptops à la Asus EEE, PDAs... you get the picture. Some manufacturers have definite shapes that represent them, I wanted to avoid that.
I think this blog should be represented by lettering, just like the Reading we all affection. For this example I chose the most common font used, (Times New Roman) which BTW is my favorite and also I think Bob's
But we should create one specific to us.
This is just a low res quick mockup for study, it should be reworked by a pro with fresher vision.
