There needs to be an easy way to search for existing logos by image similarity... the USPTO has an extensive categorisation method for trademarks ( http://tess2.uspto.gov/tmdb/dscm/index.htm ) but what's really needed is something more visual. Using Google on a greyscale version of Airbnb's logo didn't yield anything geometrically similar.

There is; it's called a trademark search, and it's a matter of public record: "The trademark examining attorney has searched the Office’s database of registered and pending marks and has found no conflicting marks that would bar registration..."
