1. What part of it sucks?
Edited on Wed Jul-21-10 06:17 PM by tridim
I just looked and it just looks reformatted a bit.

On Edit: I don't like the "load only when scrolled to" part, it's slow enough to be annoying.

2. I thought I would like it
but the "infinite scroll" is too slow and jerky.

4. It puts more images on the page. You get the same info as before by
holding your cursor over the image. It worked fine for me. Is it a problem with your computer?

10. I liked SEEING the source from the git-go. You could see at a glance how many were from the same
source.

6. They made it like Bing, which was much better imo. Google is becoming Microsoft.

8. I like it. It's faster to display the underlying page, and I don't have

to click and wait for a larger image. All the info's still there. I can't see anything about it I don't like.

Google Bass Fishing Santa, and you'll see my photo of my front yard from two Christmases ago as the number one photo. I'm so proud.

Or Google little aluminum boat, and my boat is number 2 in the results. I couldn't be happier.

:rofl:

13. OK, now I've had a few days to use it. You're right, it's AWFUL.
The old functionality is gone, clicks are up, there are more ads, less relevant results, etc. etc.

It's disgusting.
