Google's Olympic luge logo taken down

Today's logo on Google was not meant to be tasteless I'm sure, but some people thought it was. It was actually a beautiful looking logo with a luger in place of the first logo.

Today's logo on Google was not meant to be tasteless I'm sure, but some people thought it was. It was actually a beautiful looking logo with a luger in place of the first logo. However, some people think Google's logo was published too soon after the death of Olympian, Nodar Kumaritashvili, during his last practice luge run before the opening ceremonies in Vancouver.

The new logo is a snowboarder, and is much more appropriate for today.
