Be a part of Google's latest experiment

Posted in:

Do you want to be a part of Google's latest experiment? Thanks to Philipp at Blogoscoped, you can easily put more color on the Google homepage, and give your search results a permanent sidebar. [screenshots from Google Blogoscoped] To install the new version, you just need to visit the Google homepage (make sure you go to Google.com, not the version for your country), then type this into the address bar:
javascript:void(document.cookie="PREF=ID=20b6e4c2f44943bb:U=4bf292d46faad806:TM=1249677602:LM=1257919388:S=odm0Ys-53ZueXfZG;path=/; domain=.google.com");
The new design has received mixed reviews -- some people really don't like it, and some find it an improvement. Most of the people who don't like it complain about the colors, and how they are starting to move more towards a Bing-like experience. The ones that do like it think that it gives Google a fresh face after many many years of a relatively static interface. Which camp are you in?
