Ohhhhhhhh! It's ' Zinga ' not 'Zynga'

Zynga Logo
Zynga Logo

Now , this time you are going to correct me.If I am talking about the famous gaming site 'Zynga' then it is obviously spelled as 'Zynga' not 'Zinga'. Yes, but here I am talking about the American bulldog of Mark Pincus who named his dog 'Zinga';After whom the founder and first CEO of Zynga 'Mark Pincus' named his company. Mark Pincus started his company in April 2007 under the name Presidio Media; letter this name was changed to Zynga after the dog of Mark Pincus. It is the dog which is behind the logo of the company. A white silhouette of bulldog in red background is thus the inspiration behind the Company logo.

World's largest producer of digital signal processors (DSPs) and analog semiconductors the Texas Instrument's logo is also as meaningful as its existence.
On first look viewer just see the initails of company name i.e. "ti", but on close look we find some outlined around ti and for your surprise this outline is  nothing but the map of TEXAS (the state of USA).
