I don't really mind the bar on the left, but it has zero functionality so it might as well be gone...

Seriously, they really blew it with the "Google Search" and "I'm Feeling Lucky" boxes. Square static boxes with simple gradient maps? Seriously? A first year design student knows that looks like shit.

At first I thought I didn't like it but after playing around with it a little, I like it a lot actually.

I like how uniformed everything seems now. With the side bar there only the middle content changes so it seems a lot like a classic website with the left pane navigation, top heading/alternate navigation staying constant and only the page content changing. I like this a lot actually and it makes transitions between image, map and web searches seems much more fluid.

I like the tool options as well. The WonderWheel is quite a handy tool when I'm looking for specific information for an assignment but don't know too much about the subject matter. Also quick access to date filters is great. The "less or more shopping sites" feature is good as well as I spend a lot of time researching products then finding price comparisons between them. Quick access to these features just makes the overall searching process quicker.

The only thing I dislike about it is that it makes the individual search results seem pretty small. I have a bad monitor size and don't have great resolution. There is all this free space to the right side of the page that I believe they could of used much more efficiently. Apart from that I like it quite a lot, anything that improves my browsing and searching speed is a wonderful thing.

Just some nerds trying to make a statement by coming up with redundant crap and spewing some buzz words to hype up google.... These nerds need a severe beating.

on a side note, anyone used Elmer Fudd for the default language? Go to Search Preferences and hit that. Pretty funny for a few minutes.

Deadsolid,

I'm not saying the server's not in the US, I'm saying this guy below registered it:

Administrative Contact:
iPodPrivate
James Parsons (null101@hotmail.com)
+852.61725306
Fax: +1.5555555555
2D Hung Hay Building, 1st Fa Yuen Street

US

I don't know many streets in the US with Fa Yuen, or cities called Mong Kok, so Google says that's in Hong Kong. It's just me, doesn't bother me about the rest, I'll just use the other one with the redirect.
