    www.google.com[^] Anyone else think the text search entry box is just too damn large today? The predictive text as well. I wish they'd quit "adding features" :mad:

    Isn't the font size larger, too? Doesn't that defeat the objective?

        Maybe. I just wish web pages (and the humans behind them) would trust my browser settings and quit trying to do their own thing.

                  It's probably the Bing-effect. Google wants to announce loud and clear that they are bigger than Bing, even when it comes to font size. :rolleyes:

                      Yes, Google expand its wings over Bing. Search engine war is inevitable.

                            Who ever goes to the Google home page any more? I just type my search in Chrome's address bar.
