Very awesome.

Google's logo has 255 colors (including shades). With most other companies I might consider that to be a coincidence.

255 is not because Google designers chose 255 specific shades but rather the limitation of 8-bit GIF color palette.

256 (not 255) color palette also applies to 8-bit PNGs.
