My take is that this all refers to another doc with that ITEM 7 in it. I think these are interface tweaks to Chrome that will drive more search volume, but negatively impact Chrome UX. Chrome team is pushing back, b/c they don’t want their app to suck, but Ruth needs to hit her number.
- dublinben 3y agoA great example of this is how they merged the search box into the address bar, to create the "omnibar." Since then, they've aggressively promoted submitting a new Google search for whatever you're typing in, instead of returning results from your local browser bookmarks, history, etc that wouldn't generate more ad impressions.
