They've changed it again. And screwed even that up - even the bits that are supposed to be there, aren't.

Trying to force people to sign up, I suppose.

Well that's the last time. Are you listening, Google? Bing and Altavista from now on.

    Looks the same as always for me...
    If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, we have at least to consider the possibility that we have a small aquatic bird of the family anatidae on our hands

    I would wager my life savings that they are not. They are far too big to listen to someone as insignificant as you or me. :D
    You're spelling is effecting me so much. Im trying not to be phased by it but your all making me loose my mind on mass!! My head is loosing it's hair. I'm going to take myself off the electoral role like I should of done ages ago and move to the Caribean. I already brought my plane ticket, all be it a refundable 1.

    Of course they're listening, it's on the internet...


    That sentiment will be automatically recorded and used as a statistic somewhere in their branding meetings. :D



    Doesn't mean they care, but they're always watching ;)



    To the OP, are you on Google.com, the homepage interface is quite different to the google.co.uk interface.
