I'm just guessing, but I believe it's related to the way browsers where first introduced - connect to the World. The globe. You gain access the "a world of information" etc. I guess that rhetoric stuck.
So, working as a designer for Vivaldi (the browser) and being involved in designing our own icon, we felt it was natural for us to counter this. We're the square peg (in a round hole) of browsers, literally.

Yes, you're actually very cool. Having gone upstream (or up-fjord?) for twenty years (couting Opera as well) is worth respect.

Because the idea of using a single pixel height logo really didn't take off?

That might be the case. Don't forget this site though.

"we got this browser thing that allows access to the whole world. What logo should we go with?"
"Copy IBM, use the initial of the product. Plus it's not like we can do decent graphics yet, no point wasting computer resources on the logo."
5 years later.
"So computers have plenty more resources now, we should update the logo."
"Ok, hi-res initial. Next"
3 years later.
"So, the people at [Company X] put their logo in a circle."
"And?"
"Well, it represent the WORLD, as in this browser can access the world."
"Copy them, but with our initial. NEXT."

I used to hate HTML/CSS, but since I found this editor my productivity and my mood have improved dramatically!
No joke, this is not a scam! This really is the one and only HTML/CSS editor you should EVER use!
As an added bonus, it's also pretty good for your JavaScript needs.
You can find it here[^]

Well we know what you think of HTML and JavaScript. Can't say I blame you. They keep trying to fix it with that magic bullet but never succeed (remember that HTML 5 was supposed to fix all the problems). Why I was hoping Silverlight would continue to be supported. If you build business apps you don't have to work on every browser, and Microsoft was going to handle the compatibility issues. As they make HTML more capable they make it harder to make all browsers work the same. Only the managers don't understand that. Go Dilbert.

This looks to me like that container technology I keep hearing so much about.

Be fair; it depends on what you want to do.
If what you want to do is display text and some pictures, even HTML 4 is great for that.
And if what you then want to do is screw the page up, add some css.

Nurse! NURSE! He's out of bed again!
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Now, now... he's allowed out of bed. Its the stopping of medication that's the problem!
|

I think it's when he starts self-medicating that the problems really start.

The self medication comes straight from the voices from the magical fairly at the bottom of the garden... It's the doctor voices that need to be listened to.

One of the things I want to do is make PA announcements in supermarkets: "Only you can hear this. Now, what you have to do..."

"To buy our surplus stock, now on special." It won't work I hear those voice in the spermarket all the time.
But to rig up little speakers that whisper a message in a church. That would be fun

I was thinking more of "... go immediately to kitchenware in aisle 10, and find the knife section ... I'll explain more when you get there. Hurry!"

Evolution is a fairy tale, and belongs in the garbage. Perhaps if I DID self medicate, monkeys turning into humans or bananas evolving from rocks would make sense...
Science will make no strong stand, unless its against God's word.
Scientists REFUSE to stand up against the false religion of liberalism, which states that a man can change into a woman and vise versa.
But science will always attack God's word. Why can't scientists stand for the fact that humans are born either male or female, based on chromosomes, as strongly as they will stand against God's word?
