Here’s what’s new in this refreshed design of Google Images:

Dense tiled layout designed to make it easy to look at lots of images at once. We want to get the app out of the way so you can find what you’re really looking for.
Instant scrolling between pages, without letting you get lost in the images. You can now get up to 1,000 images, all in one scrolling page. And we’ll show small, unobtrusive page numbers so you don’t lose track of where you are.
Larger thumbnail previews on the results page, designed for modern browsers and high-res screens.
A hover pane that appears when you mouse over a given thumbnail image, giving you a larger preview, more info about the image and other image-specific features such as “Similar images.”
Once you click on an image, you’re taken to a new landing page that displays a large image in context, with the website it’s hosted on visible right behind it. Click anywhere outside the image, and you’re right in the original page where you can learn more about the source and context.
Optimized keyboard navigation for faster scrolling through many pages, taking advantage of standard web keyboard shortcuts such as Page Up / Page Down. It’s all about getting you to the info you need quickly, so you can get on with actually building that treehouse or buying those flowers.

what people studies have showed most people replace computers around 5year range, exceptions are gamers, enthusiasts and so on but on average a computers life is 3-5years which either way means its outdated.

christ you can buy a 5-3 year old computer for pennys if you wanted an upgrade xD

Sort of cool. I guess if you are just hanging out, you can just scroll endlessly and stay entertained

I hate that Farking thumbnail that blocks off the entire web page

The banner at the top was awesome. This is shite.
