Time For a New Icon

...
Anyone else think the old standard floppy disk "save" icon needs to be updated? I bet there are already young PC users out there that have no idea what the icon is supposed to represent.

When's the last time you used a floppy? Fortunately, I'm not the only one thinking about criticl issues like this. Here's a geeky discussion thread on the topic that includes suggestions for a replacement icon.

For our high-school senior year critical analyisis paper, we had to turn in a paper copy and a floppy disk copy.

Let me tell you, it was a HUGE problematic ordeal for me, since none of our computers even HAVE a floppy drive anymore.

Maybe upgrade to the USB Flash Drive icon?!
