Superfluous Google gripe of the day......
Edited on Sun Nov-01-09 08:20 AM by marmar
Why did they have to remove the "search" button from the Google homepage?....Now you have to hit your enter key to obtain The Google's valuable services.


...... OK, I'm, all better now. :)

2. Really? When I go to Google.com there's no search button....
Just a line underneath the search line that says "press enter to search"

4. That's so strange.....I used to get both of them, but about a week ago they vanished.
What browser are you using?

The script that llows the buttons to fade in is broken. You're one of the "lucky" users enjoying it.

10. I'm using Exploder and I see the buttons.
No need to switch to Firefox unless you want to for some other reason.
