New Homepage


Check out McCain and Obama at this event doing stand up. I think McCain did the better job personally. The comment Obama made about where he came from made me think about the above picture.

So apparently Google decided to change their iGoogle homepage yesterday. Suffice to say I hate it. Seems like it was designed for people with widescreen monitors. It doesn't appear I'm the only one that hates the new design either considering the sheer number of posts to this group. And I hate the rss feeds displays. There doesn't seem to be a way not to display the post text. Not to mention it's a bit buggy. It would have been nice had they at least retain the old layout as an option (although I can see why you don't want to move forward supporting multiple options since that means fixing bugs in two places).

UPDATE: If you want your old homepage back, you can get to it by going through Google's UK site. That is until they decide to roll these new changes out to the UK also, but for now, you can head over to here to get your old homepage back.

Just an update, the new Google homepage had the blog feed back to the original.
