Brief Summary

Small social media startup in need of a badass logo

Brand Name
Aggregated Media
Description

Aggregated Media is a small social media startup that builds lifestreaming and social media aggregation tools. Our prototype site is at http://www.profilactic.com.

We need a logo for Aggregated Media that communicates what our software does: bring content together from hundreds of social networks and social media services.

The current logo, which is really bad, shows a globe with multiple arrows converging at a single point. (see super bad logo here: http://www.aggregatedmedia.com/)

While I like the idea of having a globe with a couple of arrows coming together, the execution of the current logo is nowhere close to good enough.

Because we use RSS for a lot of our content aggregation, I would like to incorporate the orange color from the RSS chicklet.

We will need to the logo in PSD format.

Wants
  • The orange color from the standard RSS chicklet; doesn't have to be the dominate color, but would like to include it.
  • Icon or element that can be also used without "Aggregated Media" text where needed and still be recognizable and able to stand on its own
  • Simple, clean design
  • Something that communicates "bringing together" or "aggregating content"
  • IDEA THAT I LIKE (but not stuck on): Globe/world with two converging orange arrows wrapping around it (if the arrows could imply the # 8, that would be great)  http://www.flickr.com/photos/smorty71/2495745258/
Don't Wants
  • Something that's too busy
  • Something with too many colors
