Wanna try out the new Google?

Google are testing some new things, wanna try it out?
I found these instructions on a Swedish site called idg.se

Step by step:

1. Go to Google.com
2. When the page is loaded replace the URL in the address bar with this:

Code:

javascript:void(document.cookie="PREF=ID=20b6e4c2f44943bb:
U=4bf292d46faad806:TM=1249677602:LM=1257919388:S=odm0Ys-53ZueXfZG;path=/; domain=.google.com");

3. Hit Enter
4. Reload Google.com

If it didn't, try to do it again and follow the instructions carefully.

Because you might have:
Just added to the address bar, without removing the previous content.
Forgot to reload.
Visited a national Google site like Google.se or Google.co.uk

Just go to this URL:

The New Google! Check it out! Without that long text.

The reason why that works is because you've already added 'that long text' before.
What the long text does is that it adds a cookie on your computer so that Google shows the new style I think  smile

Not much, really.

And Greatdane, the only reason you can get to it w/o JavaScript is because you've done it before.

Re: Wanna try out the new Google?

The code is too long to copy and paste... is there supposed to be an enter in between?

You must reload and I don't think it works with national Google sites.

I did reload but i'm using a computer with vista so all buttons look the same.

I'll look at it in about 2 days or so again when I can use xp

I run vista too, and I'm sure many other users do.
And I don't think Google would develop a new design that doesn't work on vista  tongue
Look at the steps carefully and try again.
Be sure to replace the current URL in the address bar before adding the code.
