the reason google did so well in the early years was the clean and simple home page and now they have to resort to copying what bing have done with background graphics

I read something that said it was meant to be a 24hour thing, to promote different backgrounds & feature artists who had created them.

It looks as though they decided not to risk it for the full 24 hours. :D

LLL get yourself Google Chrome, it's a browser streamlined for fast loading and is very clean and simple.

well they seem to have removed the flying pigs :)
the thing is every time they talk about an upgrade ,what it really means is another way of targeting advertising at you
i had google beta the week it was released and it was great in those days,nice and clear
TBH i used to like netscape navigator with the little meteor storm in the corner,but gawd was the interweb slow in those days :cool:
