Notices on iGoogle?

by multippt on June 5, 2008

Google notice

Update: The “beta” notice appears to be gone, for now.

Seems like Google is doing a mini exper­i­ment on the iGoogle page. This time, it involves a small lit­tle yel­low notice with a “Close” link. Appar­ently Google for­got to place any mes­sage on the notice.

Click­ing on the close link will close the notice, though not for long as the empty annouce­ment will spring right back on the next time you reload the page.

Once again, yet another one of those minor things to hap­pen on the Google home page.

As of 5pm 6/5/08 it’s not there. I make on-the-fly changes to my web sites all the time, but I’d have expected Google to con­duct their test­ing in private.

Google seem to be mak­ing a lot of changes at the moment. It appears they are tin­ker­ing with Google trends and Google AdSense Key­wrod Tool is now pro­vid­ing you actual fig­ure rather than just lit­tle bars.
