I really hope they don't default the web search to "show more options". What I LOVE about Google is that I can start scanning down from top-left. Now I'd have a whole bar on the left I'd ignore 90% of the time. I know these bars help refine search for most people but it just doesn't feel comfortable to me.
- ErrantX 17y agoI've had some split tests of this hit me (I think) over the last few weeks. On my netbook it hid the sidebar (I think this was deliberate and not a split) I've also had it appearing/disappearing by default on various desktop machines (I think that was a split). I have to confess it is growing on my as a feature. The icons convinced me to start using the filters and some of them are useful.
- tokenadult 17y agoSince I have seen it as a trial feature, I haven't liked it, and I commented to Google to that effect. I'd like to disable it entirely, or I will be driven to doing other kinds of searching more often. After edit: for the rest of you who have seen this feature of the left side tools, have any of you been served up an option to turn it off?
