A growing number of apps are being built using an open technology stack based solely on web standards. Social media director Jeff Higgins, from Florida, tweeted: ‘The new Microsoft Edge logo looks more like the logo for something I’d toss in the dryer to make my clothes softer and smell like perfumey palm trees.’īut perhaps the most memorable comparison came from a Gizmodo writer who likened the icon to a ‘ single little cartoon spermy boy trapped in the ocean’. Web technology is a common way to develop desktop applications. Others said it looked a bit like the Firefox logo, whilst one man said it simply ‘looked shit’ and posted a vomit emoji. Some people said the logo resembled a tide pod – which are washing machine capsules you should definitely not try to eat. Here's the new Microsoft Edge logo: /leVjxk3nml gEkmw1g0olĪnd we are calling it…Microsoft TidePods! New Microsoft Edge Logo looks a lot like Firefox, inverted and rotated 180°.

However, the change was not met with unanimous support on Twitter. The logo looks like a wave as well as the letter ‘e’, perhaps referring to the concept of surfing the web – but presumably not a sly nod to club culture.
