If you type Google Bahamas, you see this: http://www.google.bs/webhp?hl=en

- Yes, horrible black bar at your left!:s:huh:
Poor American citizens on the Bahamas .. tested already ..:mad:

* News for you from the source: Google bar’s updated look (on Google Support site): http://www.google.com/support/accounts/bin/answer.py?answer=1714464&&hl=en
Reader comments: none. NO comments here at google source .. it's very speaking... But Google says: 'We look forward to hearing your thoughts.' aaa ...

.. so comments from the Web:

* Google Redesigns Search with New Google Bar (on DailyTech.com): http://www.dailytech.com/Google+Redesigns+Search+with+New+Google+Bar/article23400.htm

Reader's comment: 'I don't like how bright it is... it's almost blinding if you've been looking at something dark or are in a dark room.'

* PCWorld.com: New Google Navigation Bar is Part One of Redesign: http://www.pcworld.com/article/245193/new_google_navigation_bar_is_part_one_of_redesign.html

Reader's comment: 'this new google sucks' . Yeah, you are right.

* Viscerally Bad Response to new Google Left-Hand Drop-Down Bar: on google.es support site: http://www.google.es/support/forum/p/Web+Search/thread?tid=70fe762853a5efd6&hl=en

Reader's comment: 'Hard to believe they keep out doing themselves with suck, but they do. GOOGLE you are supposed to be simple, clean, uncluttered. WTF?? '

Then at your comments, please ..

EDIT: But now - Google Bahamas is like ancient version - bar at the top .. hmmm .. google tests.

Yes, Google tests this leftist bar .. because today, now - you see this bar with Google Bahamas search page ..:mad:

Today also - Google's search page for Vietnam (in English) has this bar too: http://www.google.com/webhp?gl=vn&hl=en
But another Google's search for Vietnam (in French here) has the ancient bar at the top of this page: http://www.google.com.vn/

Maybe precedent Google search version you get here: http://www.google.com/webhp?hl=all

Then Google is testing our nerves like ..:dodgy:

So for the fans of Google results, try rather:
* Firefox Google: http://www.google.fr/firefox .. or:
* Blakl.com: http://www.blackl.com/black-google.php .. and especially:
* Scroogle Scraper: http://www.scroogle.org/cgi-bin/scraper.htm

- No problems here. Never new bar. :cool:

EDIT:
Try this * Google SSL: https://www.google.com/ - NO bar at left ..

And another Great search engine enhanced by Google:
* StartingPage.com: https://www.startingpage.com/ - sorry for this major forgot.
Say, if you recall, that the Privatelee search engine gives Google - and Bing results together? : http://privatelee.com/ - and our topic here: 'The Most Secure and Private Search Engines': http://malwaretips.com/Thread-The-Most-Secure-and-Private-Search-Engines

I like it.
Has a subtle look. I would probably make the top bar a little darker, but other then that i like the new look.

OK., no problem, tastes I don't discuss ..;)

But for me it's too black and too big, this left bar .. I would like to have the transparence, white color, that's all. If not, it's good idea in general.

The bar itself ain't that bad. Sure there would be people complaining as usual but at least the bar is handy for some users.

Heck, there's even users who don't use google. I for one use it and am happy with it.

I find myself using this new bar alot lately, I actually quite like it. A thumbs up to Google.

Now we must all wait until they force the new channels onto us like they did with the last ones.

So we use Privatelee, DuckDuckGo and Scroogle and StartPage.

Keep your good work, MrXidius.:cool:

I was speaking of the new Youtube channel pages. What does Privatelee, DuckDuckGo, Scroogle and StartPage have to do with them?

I think, their will force us to use new channel design in few weeks again.
and also, youtube need lot feedback from youtube users and visitors also about new design, maybe their still can changing it.

new_google_bar_2-5243538.jpg


It has some interesting functionality , I see that they have added buttons for their other services like youtube, gmail etc......
I for one , like in YouTube case I don't like this toolbar because I can never find a real use for it but I'm sure Google made some studies before releasing it into the 'wild'......
