You have heard of a quick and dirty way of branding yourself from our resident contributor, Brian Ling aka Design Translator. In the first article, he first discussed the necessity and the know-hows to brand yourself in our competitive world. In this sequel, he proposes a quickier and dirtier strategy to brand yourself with a web 2.0 feel on your company logos.

Know thy enemy and know thyself, find naught in fear for 100 battles. Know thyself but not thy enemy, find level of loss and victory. Know thy enemy but not thyself, wallow in defeat every time.
- Sun Tzu

So we need to study our competitors in the web 2.0 world and their branding standards they subscribed to.
