Silicon Valley's Biggest Names Pull Out Rainbow Flags After Marriage Equality Ruling

SAN FRANCISCO (CBS SF) - This weekend's big Pride Parade may be in San Francisco, but that didn't stop Silicon Valley leaders from (digitally) waiving the rainbow flag in support of Friday's Supreme Court ruling ending bans on same-sex marriage.

Once a taboo subject for executives, there was broad support for marriage equality coming from some of the biggest names in the Tech industry Friday, with some even changing their social media logos to incorporate the rainbow flag. Here's a look at some of the social media posts that popped up Friday morning:

Apple's openly-gay CEO was among the first to voice his pride.

Google was literally waiving the flag.

San Jose's PayPal and San Francisco's Square kept it simple.

Twitter's official LGBT Account promoted some new emojis.

San Francisco-based Uber gave the logo a new look.

Salesforce's Founder and vocal LGBT advocate Mark Benioff redrew the map

And the Pandora social media team gave a shout out to the Supreme Court.

Many of the above companies will be sending big contingencies to the Pride Parade in San Francisco Sunday, which should be the most festive ever. Here's a guide for those who have never been.
