Re: What on Earth Have Google Done?

Hi
The seotools 'Hide Google Options' addon for Firefox has been updated to version 1.0b8 so that it now covers all international googles, not just google US.

Please do not shout at me when presenting your opinion - it is awesomely rude, dude ..

The new design is different, you obviously don't like it - however that does not make it 'garbage'.

In my opinion it is an interesting change I want to explore in order to form my own opinion - I do not need capitalised ranting to help me do that - reasonable discussion, will suffice ...

Re: What on Earth Have Google Done?

I use those options a lot, but before they used to not be there by default, you had to click a button to show them.
Google like all other big companies is making the worst mistake possible, they making changes to default layout for the sake of change and this only alienates people who dont want change.
