useless.
i can't tell you how many times i've been work drunk(delirious from too many tasks on top of tasks) and the only thing that can help me find the goddamn text document app is the little document-like icon behind the W.
Now they're taking that way from me, is just in line with MS Office becoming LESS helpful over the decades and not more.

Not bad but I think the 2013 ones have more character.
Still, pretty good considering the godawful appearance of most modern icon and logo updates.

2010 still the best Outlook logo. If someone could help me revert my Office 365 Outlook start bar logo to 2010, I would be greatly appreciative!

I miss the OG logos, but this is an acceptable balance between the modern GUI model of "abstract everything to remove any notion of interaction metaphor to the user" and the ol' reliable model of "it's a fucking word processor for chrissakes" -- it doesn't work too well outside of the context of the Excel and PowerPoint icons tho
The first look at Outlook's icon and I was surprised it wasn't yellow. Then I look at Outlook being open on my work machine and realise that the current icon is also blue. Thought I had a Mandela effect moment, but looking at the article shows that Outlook's icon used to be yellow, so I'm quite happy that I'm not going mad, or jumping between dimensions. Would have preferred it to be yellow again though.
That being said, I like the look of the new icons.
Edit: I see a couple of posters above me are people of culture too.

If you didn't know what these were already you'd never be able to guess from the icon. I don't know if that's a problem or not, but I feel like it is.
Now all of the 365 apps are rolled in, so get used to seeing SharePoint, Teams, and Yammer in more places
Looks pretty good to me.
Skypes new logo kinda sticks out like a sore thumb with the different font for the S.

Man, that 2007 icon was bad. And 2010 wasn't much better.
New ones are good except that Outlook needs to be a different color than Word (since they aren't related at all).

I still use outlook 2007 and Word 2007 /shrug
Get in line bud. I'm still waiting for the 2010 upgrade.

I think I still prefer the 2013 versions, because the gradient thing is a bit busy, but I otherwise kinda like them. Seems weird that there are so many blue ones, though. Seems like they would stand out more and be more readable at a glance if they were different colors.
