Preview Google's New Search Results Page
ubermiester writes "Ars Technica demonstrates how to copy and paste a bit of JavaScript to preview a facelifted Google. Ars points out that 'the changes are minimal, but they give some insight into Google's plans.'" I thought we already knew those: world domination.
Apparently the first step towards world domination is to move the category tabs to the left of the search results. Ooh, I'm scared too.
Religion for nerds. Stuff that really matters
you kidding? this is google we're talking about, GOOGLE!!
It's a revolutionary new approach to search, it's the next best thing, it's marvellous, it's hip cool and groovy, sheesh.. 'no-one will notice' indeed...
I, for one, welcome our new column re-arranging overlords.
Post apocalyptic gaming goodness
Thanks /. it was amazing to see some of the text move left. Don't forget to keep us posted about other exciting changes such as Google's got a new coke machine or whatever. Us hackers get off on that, it's in our blood.

You could go to digg and find out what Steve Jobs had for breakfast.
I bet it was really cool and trendy, and worked way better than what Bill Gates had for breakfast.
The next Cmdr Taco duplicate will be ready soon, but subscribers can beat the rush and see it early!
This proves that the real brains behind Google is The Brain
Pinky's job is to come up with mispellings of words so you get somewhat meaningful "Did You Mean:" suggestions!

Indeed, that's not worth discussing. Han DID shoot first, and anyone who says otherwise is an idiot (including George Lucas).
Circumcision is child abuse.
Yup, I've seen it many times, too. No Digg.
You forgot the part where it integrates people centered applications on a collaborative platform with total quality management propagated across the enterprise while simultaneously increasing productivity, lowering costs, and solving world hunger seamlessly.
Thank you for mentioning this. I thought Google was going nuts, but I never saw it again, so I thought I was going nuts.
At least if I'm going nuts, it's going to manifest itself in some other, more interesting (or at least entertaining) way.
End of lesson. You may press the button.
I finally arrived at the same conclusion, but untila fter hours of soul searching.
Google or Taliban?
Google or Taliban?
Google or Taliban?
But once I realized the Taliban would shoot me rather than consider moving the tabs, the choice became easy.
up up down down left right left right B A Try it. It works.
world domination? I think Google is more into moon domination
The best minds in the world, all of whom have been hire by Google, came up with that new UI. I'm simply blown away by how good it is. It needs to be reported in every single media outlet on the planet because it's so earth shattering. You've really gotta hand it to Google - it makes the efforts of mere mortals look paltry by comparison. I don't know why /. even has news stories about other companies.
"The White House is not an intelligence-gathering agency," -- Scott McClellan, Whitehouse spokesman.
MS and Yahoo better do something equally innovative to catch up. Google's really leading the pack now!
So, Han doesnt shoot first, Han shoots solo.
Synergy is a perfectly cromulent word.
