I'm pretty sure that guy doesn't have a monopoly on using stylized thunderbolts as a logo.

- wmeredith 13y agoTrue, but his brand is already powerful and has established meanings and connections in the same market with his blogging platform. It's not illegal or anything, but why fight a mindshare battle you don't have to?

Point is, as wmeredith pointed out, he is well known among web designers/developers, created Svbtle (a competing blogging platform), and has been using that as his personal logo for as long as I can remember, maybe half a decade.
