I like #1, #2, #3, #7, and #10 by the way, for these reasons: * They are simple * They only use blue (I don't think the orange looks good) * The logotype (i.e. letters) are kept separate from the logo (i.e. graphic elements). I do not like the cloud element being used as an "o", I think it makes the logotype look ugly.
