"It's Halloween, and technology news is scarce. Logos redecorated in Halloween style abound, and perhaps it's just me, but they mostly seem ugly as hell. \nI mean, look at this. Google has had some really cute/cool logos in the past, but this one is downright fugly. OK, I get it, the letters are ghosts. However, only \"L\" actually resembles one; the others look like, well, poorly drawn letters (and moldy, in case of \"G\"). I admit that it takes creativity to personify each letter into something meaningful, but this is really a sad, sad attempt. \n\nYouTube won't win any awards with that genetically engineered pumpkin, too. It's not even carved out, losers!\n\nYahoo actually has quite a cool logo. Pixel graphic style, cute and spooky, and there's even an animated family of undeads and ghosts scuttling through the scenery every now and then. Well done, Yahoo: Google may be owning you in every other sphere of interest, but when it comes to cute logos, you're the king!\n\nI did not expect this, but Ask.com's take on Halloween actually scared me. Well, not in the \"I dropped off my chair\" kind of way, but those pumpkins are huge, man! Kudos to Ask for taking the Halloween theme so seriously. \n\nOn the other hand, AOL is being too shy with a miniature pumpkin. Don't want to scare those young visitors, huh? \n\nTechnorati's take on Halloween is boring as expected: a plain, vanilla-style pumpkin replacing the \"O\". It gets points for looking evil, though. \n\nThe result could have been worse, though; it could have been this: \n\nPhotoshop skills ftw.\nJust for the record, all of the above at least get points for trying; MySpace and Facebook still look their boring selves, just like any other day. Yawn!\nIf you know of any other cool, funny or just plain awful Halloween logos, feel free to add more in the comments!\n"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
