Most of you will have noticed now that the bar at the top of google search results is now black with red highlights. Pesonally I think it looks crap because it clashes really bad with all the other colours? What do you think?

I actually like it. The black bar looks pretty to me.

Also, in case you didn't know: Google owns Youtube and Youtube also received the same color treatment. The video application looks different now.

Yeah, but the new youtube bar is growing one me, unlike the google bar.

it still "googles" right?.....then I'm all set.

It's to make way for 'Google+', their new social networking service, coming soon. You can see its preview website at The Google+ project , with an introduction video at YouTube - The Google+ project: A quick look

Oh yeah, I forgot that Google+ launched.

google + huh?
Wonder if it'll be the next big thing like facebook.

I'm alright with it.
doesn't bother me much, but I already got used to it.

I hear that so far the only cool thing about it is the Circle part of it.

I don't recall if someone said if it uses your Gmail contacts or if it let's you search like Facebook.
