BP at last responds to Gulf of Mexico disaster

As public fury mounts over what has been described as America’s worst ever environmental disaster , BP buys top search results for terms like “oil spill” from both Google and Yahoo.

According to this Daily Telegraph report a search for the term "oil spill" on Tuesday night brought up a link to BP's website with the tagline: “Learn more about how BP is helping.”

I found this competition http://www.logomyway.com/contestView.php?contestId=1746 to re-design the BP logo

Desperation is the real Mother of Invention.

The situation in the Gulf of Mexico is desperate.

That is a good signpost towards New Clean Technologies.

It's at the top of the Yahoo search results right enough. It does not seem to figure in Google at all.
