So I guess its up to the individual if they want to take the risk of using such cards. I really don't think its a big deal because we are not abusing it. There will always be two opinions about any idea. But I can see from my traffic that a lot of people visit my site because the keyword is my name. Meaning that they search for me. I have no doubt that online personal branding is a smart investment for the future. Hi Jen, Unfortunately I have not had any response from Google since I submitted my query.

Just wondering did you ever get a response back from Google about the use of their logo? I am just curious about what their answer was. Also there was a comment posted about people not wanting to waste their time doing a search for your name to find out about you but I tend to disagree with that comment. I think more people would do the search then not. I believe it is in human nature to be curious and want to find out more info, especially in this particular situation. I know I am always using Goolge to look up things and I know my step dad does it all the time too. I also wanted to say thanks for all the great articles. I have a lot of reading to do on your blog site LOL!!! Keep up the awesome work and congratulations on all of your successes!!! ?Jen? aka ?Kittykat7983? Brian,

Law is an interesting beast, its designed to be literal but totally open to interpretating the “spirit” of law in question.

I don't think Google will come after you for many reasons
-it represents the brand in a neutral to positive light
-it would NOT affect their revenue (which is why trademarks are created)
-you are not IMPERSONATING Google. This is important because you are not misrepresenting them

The only “grey” area is “would you be seen as a Google employee”. That would be. Given they have already given out cards like this, they set their own precedent as to its use.
