Is Google’s experimental ‘fading homepage’ really news?
By Charles-Henry Ruyant
On YouTube today I noticed that the most viewed video is one about Google. Quickly watch it; it is only a ten second video. It is about the test home page of Google, where the top menu and the links fade in.
My surprise wasn’t that Google had a new homepage, but that so many people are interested in it and the huge amount people watching this video (75,000 viewers in two days). Does everything that Google does important to everyone?
For me, this is a proof that Google is highly important for most internet users. Everybody seems concerned about any tiny changes to our favourite search engine.
