	Swoosh! (View) Read Mercer Schuchardt
		In a world where technology, entertainment, and design are converging, the story of the Swoosh is by far the most fascinating case study of a systematic, integrated, and insanely successful formula for icon-driven marketing.
		The Swoosh is a simple shape that reproduces well at any size, in any color, and on almost any surface--three critical elements for a corporate logo that will be reproduced at sizes from a quarter of an inch to 500 feet.
		Like the Christian fish, the Swoosh is a true religious icon in that it both symbolizes the believer's reality and actually participates in it.

	Swoosh - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Nike "Swoosh" is a design created in 1971 by Carolyn Davidson, a graphic design student at Portland State University.
		In June 1972, the first running shoes bearing the Swoosh were introduced at the U.S. Track and Field Olympic Trials in Eugene, Oregon.
		However, according to Nike's historian, the Swoosh was designed in June 1971, while the name Nike was not adopted by Blue Ribbon Sports until August of that same year.

	Use Red Swoosh to Serve Files For Free
		On a side note, Red Swoosh was in the process of changing offices earlier this year and took the opportunity to “offshore itself” temporarily - they moved the six person company to Krabi, Thailand for a month while they built the new product (kudos to Mark Cuban for green-lighting this).
		Now I know that we both agree that Red Swoosh is a superior CDN technology, but instead of being embarassed to say you looked to others and even Red Swoosh for inspiration, be open to the fact that you may have learned something from other folks.
		It is also true that Red Swoosh has a much more mature technology than Dijjer, which I really haven’t done much work on in quite a while, and it would not surprise me to know that Red Swoosh’s stuff works much more effectively as a result.

		It should be noted that though the NIKE® Swoosh Logo Crew Socks are not high-maintenance garments, special care should be taken not to splash paint on them or wash them in the same load as red shop rags.
		The NIKE® Swoosh Logo is knit-in to each sock (one NIKE® Swoosh Logo per sock), and the NIKE® Swoosh Logo’s apex is located approximately two centimeters from the top of the crew sock near where the foot enters the garment.
		It should be clear that I am very much in favor of NIKE® Swoosh Logo Crew Socks and shall continue to wear them even at the cost of being denied the opportunity to have my pee-pee lopped off and becoming the subject of an Elton John ballad.
