Yahoo vs. Google on Memorial Day: No contest
I run regular holiday competitions pitting the logo artistry of Yahoo designers against those of Google:
Valentine's Day, Google vs. Yahoo Valentine’s Day competition
Earth Day, Google vs. Yahoo: Earth Day
Thanksgiving, Google or Yahoo: You decide!
What about today, Memorial Day? There are no commemorative logos at either Yahoo.com or Google.com.
Prayer for Peace, Memorial Day, 2007 A Proclamation by the President of the United States of America
On Memorial Day, Americans pause with solemn gratitude and deep respect for all our fallen service men and women who have given their lives for our country and our freedom.
Through the generations, the courageous and selfless patriots of our Armed Forces have secured our liberty and borne its great and precious cost. When it has mattered most, patriots from every corner of our Nation have taken up arms to uphold the ideals that make our country a beacon of hope and freedom for the entire world. By answering the call of duty with valor and unrelenting determination, they have set a standard of courage and idealism that inspires us all.
