Mocked up NEW Google page created in XHTML :

(link via Pixelsurgeon)Erm... layout doesnt work quite right in Firefox (bottom panel doesnt wrap around links!!)
... or in IE (bottom panel changes size when mouseover links!!)
Yeah, nice work :-|

Pish, doesnae work and adding even a few bytes to google must have a huge impact.
How many searches do they serve a second?

I remember a while ago in here, there was a google project thread, and Josh Davis, designed a much user friendly/atractive google interface.

none of them are much better...

on closer reading, they actually admit that they have built the page based on the above concept.
ho hum.

This looks pretty similar:
I use a FireFox extension to even further strip Google from any unnecessary content, a single search bar would do it for me.

I don't see the point in this "redesign", it's just the goole bar in a blue background. No effort has been made to change anything, just the styling a bit and it's not even very nice.
I don't really know off the top of my head how you would improve on the google homepage to be honest, it's simple and to the point. The search results page is surely where work could really make a difference?

redesigning the logo would be a good place to start...
- PublikStar0
why? simple search engine is the best answer! but yes i would like to see the logo redesigning...

why the redesign, it works perfect as it is. Also, what is it with this big companies with such ugly logo's (MSN, Ebay, Google and so on) are all so successful. It really shits in the face of good design, how can us designers justify it when these guys do so well.

does no one just use the google search built into firefox?

BP and Shell both have well designed logos and are two of the biggest companies.
Citigroup (Paula Scher / pentagram) as well.
- mr_snuggles0
BP actually has a great story behind the logo as well, which is nice...
yeah, I like stuff, things too...

the only improvement to google would be the use of naked ladies

yeah and the results come out of an opening of the legs and a gentle sigh as they are displayed.

I know Landor has designed BP, but I have no idea who the actual lead designer was:
