if they put half the time into fixing the serps as they did putting hearts in search toolbars for global changes it would be a miracle..

Atleast they give us a little kiss and a heart after loving most of us then leaving us in the dark =)

Anyone downloaded Google Desktop? Works with the taskbar, search box which you type in your keywords and a "mini Google browser" appears with the results from Google.

If you have been using Google regularly, you must have missed the several other "dress up days" they've had. Usually Holiday related .. Christmas was cute =)

I don't believe it's an upgrade. They put a "decoration" on the Google site to celebrate a holiday. It's only there for a few days and then it's gone until the next one. Only thing I can think of is to hide the toolbar when you don't like what you're seeing.

I agree, that and their Google logo designs - must cost plenty of cah they could spend on the real needs of users.
