You should recognise these 10 logos of Australian companies; and that is because they all have 2 things in common. These 10 company logos were voted by an expert panel to be the top 10 logos of all time in a poll from Desk Top Magazine<\/a>\u00a0 and MarketingMag.com.au<\/a>. All of the companies that these logos belong to are all both popular and successful. So that begs the question, is some of the popularity of these companies a result of a recognisable and well branded logo, or do successful companies just have a knack for developing good logos?<\/p>\n
