bout damn time they made some kind of change!
http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2009/09/now...-e-r-sized.htmlBasically, they just made things a little easier to use, with making everything a tiny bit bigger.

It's hard to get excited over a larger search box, which isn't even truly "supersized".
yawn. I was never looking for Google to change (not that this is a bad change or anything), but if it ain't broke...

That's a really boring, kind of annoying change... now I have to zoom out to make it feel normal. :\

I kept wondering if my browser had it zoomed in.

^wtf
The only, slightly interesting thing Google did (at least for me that is) was with that barcode logo.

Web-Kit browsers are browsers that utilize web-kit to make them, err.. browsers like safari, and webkit(obv).

^ I think they only did it for WebKit browsers because Google Chrome runs the WebKit rendering engine, and naturally they want everyone to switch to their browser to see the changes.

no, I think I misphrased. I know what Webkit-based browsers are, I just said wtf that they had to make it for only Webkit-based browsers. :|

Or because only WebKit implements the gradient extension.
Also, Firefox has it in the latest alpha, but with a different method; I think Google wants to push for the standardization of the WebKit extension.

It's Google, they could put a box with a red x to show their logo isn't loading, and they would still make billions. I like Google as a home page, it loads fast and doesn't have all the useless clutter like Yahoo or AOL.
