New Google Search Results Lay Out

I just did a search and the whole look has changed since the one I did this morning.

I don't know if I like it.

 

My searches show like that from time to time and I haven't been able to figure out why. Then they go back to normal.

If you figure out what causes this, please share.

You might try closing your browser then re-opening and see if it is back to normal.

 

Weird. I thought it was their new look or something. Didn't realize it might be caused by something inadvertent. I'll look into it.

 

I had to clear my cache but it's gone now.

I did find this answer on a few product threads which seemed to be the consensus:

 

What can I say, Eldon...I'm a creature of habit and it sets it up the way I like it.

 

Thanks LauraR for finding that. I just assumed I had done something. Personally, I don't like the results in those boxes.

As far as using google, I've used others but sadly I never seem to get the results. Google nails down what I want pretty well so I keep using it.

The current version of palemoon doesn't include google as a search engine. I had to install it on our 4 computers. Not only did I miss it but my husband complained that google was gone. So I guess it's not just ladies who use google.

 

Yep...this. I don't find other ones give me the results I want.

I'll give startpage a try. Doesn't look bad.

 

Wonder if this is a test as didnt get the same screen layout but have seen Google and Microsoft randomly test new layouts to search results in the past,

http://yippy.com/ (used to be called Clusty) still one of my favs when researching stuff as its a clustering search engine, so narrow down your options (concept clusters is the menu)
