google must have just pushed some update and it looks kind of funky now. Hopefully someone will make a greasemonkey script so i can change it back :P

Yes, it looks like they updated. I'm gonna keep my eye out for a GreaseMonkey script as well. I hate how Google change and become less simplistic, which was their main appeal. It's the same thing that happened to YouTube, but with Google (who also own YouTube).

I guess, but that other layout was like... older than I can recall. Fine for a little change I guess. I just don't think I like google's web design so much these days. Gmail's great, but the new youtube and google are a bit weird and not necessarily any more efficient.

I don't see a problem with it, and the post-search sidebar is actually quite convenient.

the weird thing is that now the bar on the side duplicates the links at the top of the page. Do they need to be there twice?

You'll get used to it. One thing I notice is that when a site changes how it looks, people always say it's "weird" or "bad".

You know what would be a big re-design?  
Everytime someones searches for something they cure cancer. That would be worth mentioning :P

I was about to say that its not like bing because you can't do a video search for "breasts" and then watch a ton of porn videos by mousing over them in your search results. But it looks like bing now screens those sites out even if safesearch is off. That was, like, the only thing Bing was good for. This is a dark day for search engines.

I have to say, I hate it when people see something on the Internet change and instantly cry about it, and say "change is bad, I can't stand it, it's the worst thing ever, let me get a Greasemonkey script to put it back to the way it was." This is seriously my number one pet peeve. It looks fine.

We'll see if I get used to it, probably will. 
You can only really judge it after some days/weeks.

It may look fine on a computer, but on the PSP it doesn't format well at all.

well, i wasnt saying it was bad enough to not use it. I wasn't even sure if it was interesting enough to post in off topic. You might want to save invoking you pet-peeve for people who make petitions about stuff like this. There are some tech articles about the change that went online today and apparently the goal was a more "whimsical", Bing-like, Google.

It doesn't matter to me; Google still gets the job done when it comes to searching.
