All these bright, candy-like brands! So exciting! A few deserve special recognition:

web2diggdotus.jpgDiggdot.us doesn't bother hiding its origins. At least this logo tells you exactly what you're getting — but that's what makes it such lawsuit bait.


web2newsmob.jpgDesign? News Mob doesn't need no stinkin' design! Slap a dotted underline on that puppy! Three seconds! Logo made! Next! (Wait, is this even an actual company? No one's home at newsmob.com.)


web2feedblitz.jpgNo fear at all, dude. Totally retro, with the harsh orange beveled boxes. After all, Feedblitz is a service for people who can't bother with aggregators. A Web 1.0 look will do.


web2feedxs.jpgNow that is cool. FeedXs is the same burn-your-eyes-out orange as Feedblitz, but that gently faded 3d effect lets FeedXs get away with it.


web2songbird.jpgSlick logo, and a perfect pictograph for the Songbird music player, but a wiser marketing move might be buying songbird.com.

Digg Watch Blog posted a linked list of the sites and services. The full-glory grid after the jump.

<![CDATA[Valleywag contest: Mark up the mashup]]> Ludwig Gatzke organized around 200 dot-com logos in this beautiful and very trendy mashup:

a million little pieces

"Logo 2.0" has some flipmeat, some post-flipmeat, and a few eternal betas. That's a hell of a collection, and Gatzke says he's making another grid already. Holy info overload, Batman.

Gatzke gave Valleywag permission to play with this map. Mark it up any way you want — cross out the dead companies, connect the Yahoo buyouts, or, well, do something cooler. Then e-mail it to tips@valleywag.com with "logo 2.0" in the subject line.

The top four markups will compete in a Valleywag reader poll, and the winner gets a pile of Yahoo schwag.
