Shazam's logo even applies gradients, which we don't. There are many logos out there that look quite the same but are different. You can observe repeating patterns everywhere simply because people draw what they see. How many logos have you seen with the same animal, a car, a rectangle, a circle or any other geometric shape or pattern? Everything is a remix of something.

It is some sort of music catching service called shazam [1]or similar. It is clearly very different thing to UG. But since things can happen the other way with names[2], I thought I'd mention it, just in case.

We call it the Ice Cream Principle. Tell 10 people to go get ice cream with one condition: they all have to agree on one flavour. That flavour is going to be chocolate or vanilla every time. Groups of people don't agree on what's cool or interesting, they agree on what's easy to agree on. </TD> </TR> </TABLE> </BODY> </HTML>
