Changes at Google's Home

Friday August 11, 2006
You may have noticed that Google has changed their homepage again. A Google Video link has been added to the home page, and the "more" tab now opens up a drop-down list of new selections. Here's a screen capture I made:

New Google Interface

Google has been struggling with ways to showcase their search options. If they add too many buttons and options to their interface, they risk distracting the user, and they do not separate themselves from their competitors. However, they still need to find a way to highlight some of the more hidden Google products and services.

So far, I'm not digging the new interface. I don't like the drop down on the "more" link. Give it another week or so, and I'm sure it will grow on me.
