nukenorman Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 Ok so I use Google quite often. I have noticed that for the past few months the website has been changing its interface a little bit. It is not a big difference but the logo is a little bit difference if you look closely and other things . Most of the time the website has it the old design and then sometimes ( usually late at night ) I log in and the new Google page is up. I logged in my 2nd computer when this happens and it does not show the new Google homepage. I did not sign up for any new beta preview or anything. My question is does this happen to anyone else? Why does it only happen on my one computer? Is Google testing out a slightly new updated design? Basically the logo on the new site is smoother.

Growled Member Posted April 9, 2010 Member Share Posted April 9, 2010 Yeah, I've noticed this as well. I guess all of us Google users are beta testers now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cooky560 Veteran Posted April 9, 2010 Veteran Share Posted April 9, 2010 I hate the new "feature" on Google's homepage where the menus appear sometime after the search box does Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dead.cell Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 I hate the new "feature" on Google's homepage where the menus appear sometime after the search box does They appear when you move the mouse. Otherwise, it assumes you're just going to do what the millions of people do already: just search. As for the changes, I really like them. Only see them on IE8 at the school. Loading up my Chrome Portable ends up with me back with the old look. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMELTN Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 I like the old logo with drop shadows, but I like the new buttons and more of the faded look Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amon91 Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 Still getting the old logo here but I'm glad they're updating. After all the old one looks so 2000. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calum Veteran Posted April 10, 2010 Veteran Share Posted April 10, 2010 I've been waiting for this homepage for ages. It's still not arrived for me :/ Oh well. I doubt it'll ever look as nice as Bing, so I'm not really that bothered; I just despise the shadows and colours of the current Google logo.

+John. Subscriber¹ Posted April 15, 2010 Subscriber¹ Share Posted April 15, 2010 I've had this for ages. I like it, and I don't think I could go back to the old one. Just waiting on the new beta one that's floating around right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
