  • Whats up with google?

    I dont know about you guys but I dont want to see a pretty picture load every time I do a search.

    I feel like they are copying off bing. Why?

    they are copying off bing. except for that bing is better in that their background is interactive and you can learn about the background. i miss the plain old google.

      exactly, the bing page looks a lot better.

      i just dont get why google feels the need to even put up a picture. they are clearly the search king, why copy from second best? makes them seem desperate.

        Not sure what you mean. I don't get a picture when I do a search.

          maybe they are doing a test for people in the north east?

                      I logged out of my gmail, cleared cookies and it's still the normal search screen. Sounds like they are in the middle of testing things.

                        lol. I saw on the news last night that Google was trying to do the whole background thing but it caused such an uproar that they stopped.
