Techcrunch recently covered a hot new web 2.0 startup called ZiiTrend. At first glance, it may appear to be another Inkling Markets, but it has a twist.
DISCLAIMER: So you can't accuse me of "pulling an Arrington", let me say that I'm friends with the Inkling Markets guys (they're also YC alums). In fact, I've been a friend ever since they launched -- over a year ago.
Back to ZiiTrend, I really like their logo. I've been harping on the Inklings to get a more futuristic-looking mascot since day one.
C'mon guys.ZiiTrend doesn't have this problem.
In fact, I think they have fantastic taste in mascot design. I would have made the eyes a bit bigger, though. People like things with big eyes -- like babies, puppies, and cuttlefishes.
