• Google's Size Upgrade - Is Bigger Better?
    85 replies, posted
Google has recently made a small but drastic change to its interface. You may have to clear your browser's cache/cookie or whatnot to see this change. ~not promised!~ Here's the URL:v:: [url]http://www.google.com[/url] The search bar and search text are now larger: [img]http://filesmelt.com/downloader/google1.jpg[/img] [img]http://filesmelt.com/downloader/google2.jpg[/img] [B]Some things to think about while posting in this thread:[/B] Can you manage to search for something without thinking something like, "THE TEXT IS SO BIG"? Do they make you happy? Do they make you sad? Do they think they're good? Or do you think they're bad? Will it grow on you with time? Or maybe I shouldn't rhyme? [B]My take on it is:[/B] Why are the search bar and font so large now? I feel like I'm being treated like a senior citizen; I could read the old font size just fine! However, I'm a tolerant person.

CTRL + Scroll Just letting you know..
why is my poop black? and it's normal to me, looks like it always has.
why is my computer running slow virus
[QUOTE=Tyler_Durden;17224380]CTRL + Scroll Just letting you know..[/QUOTE] yes but this is a google interface change. yours will change too soon enough
[QUOTE=Tyler_Durden;17224380]CTRL + Scroll Just letting you know..[/QUOTE] I'm smart enough to check all my personal settings first.
[QUOTE=CadetBailey;17224393]yes but this is a google interface change. yours will change too soon enough[/QUOTE] So it is one person at a time I think there is a flaw in this plan
[QUOTE=Some 09'r Fag;17224402]So it is one person at a time I think there is a flaw in this plan[/QUOTE] [B]"This plan"[/B] is already being implemented!!!
[QUOTE=Some 09'r Fag;17224402]So it is one person at a time I think there is a flaw in this plan[/QUOTE] no you just aren't very smart. clear your cookies/cache shit and refresh google.
It's annoying imo.
Uhm. Looks exactly the same as before here. Then again I never use google anyways, I always just use the google search bar in firefox.
Do not like
That's really ugly, but I think it only does it if you have ClearType on or not, I have no idea then but it looks the same to me
Looks the same to me: [img]http://hailaeros.com/ZScreen_Uploads/SS-2009.09.10-01.59.18.png[/img]
[url]http://www.google.com/firefox[/url] still looks hot.
Not big enough. [img]http://imgkk.com/i/3lsbVm.png[/img] Now we're googlin'.
I thought my browser was zoomed in at first when I saw it last night. Weird at first, but I'll get used to it I suppose.
I bet they spent millions making sure this was 'just right'. Google do an insane amount of data collection and testing on even the slightest of changes. For example they spent 6 months deciding how many pixels of blank space there should be between the search box and the results on the results page, 3 or 4? Maybe 5?

[QUOTE=Zeke129;17224471]Not big enough. *image* Now we're googlin'.[/QUOTE] heh, it looked normal size for me since I decided to almost zoom all the way out.
Oh, shit, I was adjusting the font size and zooming out because I thought someone fucked with the browser on the work computer. Good to know.
I cleared my cache and google.com and google.co.uk are both exactly the same as before.
Oh, okay.
I cleared my cache and cookies and shit but it looks the same to me. Then again I'm on a 1680x1050 screen.
I noticed this and tried to zoom in and out of my page several times. I don't like it much at all but I'm sure I'll get used to it. [sp]I thought I was going crazy[/sp]
Isn't Blackle a search engine? [editline]07:54AM[/editline] [url]http://blackle.com/[/url]
[QUOTE=Wakka V2;17224779]Isn't Blackle a search engine? [editline]07:54AM[/editline] [url]http://blackle.com/[/url][/QUOTE] Yes. Now turn around and walk away.
[QUOTE=Zeke129;17224471]Not big enough. [img]http://imgkk.com/i/3lsbVm.png[/img] Now we're googlin'.[/QUOTE] Still too small! [img]http://filesmelt.com/downloader/awwwight.jpg[/img]
