Ok these are lame but I feel the need to know.
Why is the google logo half full of water and dripping into a bowl.
How long have they been pushing the toolbar at the bottom of the web searches?
Oh yeah almost forgot, why I am I seeing image searches at the top?

Thanks I figured it was new, just caught me off guard and makes me wonder what they are up to.

chaze · 03-22-2005, 04:13 PM

Oh I see, from the search page. I thought you meant the whole image searching option.

Ok, that could have been answered by just hovering your cursor over the logo.

Yeha, it is world water day. I find the logo cute though and I find it cool everytime they do artistic manipulations with their logo.
