It's not even a real text box. If you click it your cursor will blink there but the second you start typing it all goes into the omnibox.

Even Apple wasn't always minimalist. Their first logo: [img]http://imgkk.com/i/nr-s.png[/img]
I wonder when they'll make the logo entirely black.

this was needed tbh since the current black bar was kinda redundant looking on the search result pages [img]http://i.cubeupload.com/5is47R.png[/img] though one would think that they could have a solution that didn't require an extra click and a hunt through icons just to get to a subsection from the homepage [editline]22nd September 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=Mkt778;42272719]Bleh. In all honesty I'm not a very big fan of the flat logos trend. I'm hoping it doesn't last very long. I'm very aware I have to put up with it, though. Fads come and go. I'm just ready for the next one already.[/QUOTE] It's just getting rid of inane bullshit from the logo imo - having less unnecessary beveled edges and tacky 3D shit to work with puts the pressure on the logo designer to come up with something cool and memorable. Of course then there is always the temptation just to make your logo consist of just something someone typed in photoshop in a sans serif typeface a la microsoft, which is just kinda lazy. That said it still works because of the windows logo and colours next to it.
[QUOTE=Garik;42273779]I wonder when they'll make the logo entirely black.[/QUOTE] Never, the colours are an important part of the brand
Also these flat logos look far, far better in the context of webpages and are much more readable on small screens than the old ones. I mean, the old chrome logo still looks kinda cool imo but it's just not a great icon because there's a load of extraneous shiny stuff and for some reason it looks like it's at a 45 degree angle.
