So how did it end?

I would suggest to make the head of the gnu more round. There is
no letter in the alphabet which is round like an 'o' but has two
horns on top.

Yes, the logo is fine by itself - especially on the website where
the name is already in the location bar. But it is also good to
have a variant with text whenever it makes sense to have. It may
make sense to put the parts of the word vertically as in

        GNU
        NET

and it may make sense to look into completely different styles
of free fonts, the bolder and decorative rather than the plain
reading ones.
