The Google homepage changed!

[1FC0]

When using W3M I now need to press jj<tab> instead of jj<tab><tab> to get to the search bar. Does anyone know what Google changed? They probably changed it this week or at least very recently.

I think that they might have changed the Google logo above the search bar to a background image instead of being a normal image in a link. I am not sure though because I never paid much attention to it, it is just that having to press tab one less time is so noticable that I simply can not miss that something has changed.

So does anyone here know what changed? Maybe someone has a mirror of the old page?

Edit: Yahoo has the old page from yesterday in cache and there the logo is still an image so it looks like so far I was right, though it is not in a link. I wonder why I had to press tab twice and regret never paying attention to it. But it does not matter much since this knowledge would be of little value so I guess that I can get over it.

It is pretty cool that W3M users can now Google faster!

Here's a thing that I also noticed.
On Chrome google blank page when you haven't login to Google, on the right side it used to look like this:

sorry, my area is in Chinese.
But when I logout, I checked the Chrome main page, it still has the same style when I login!

But if I click on personal app like Drive,Gmail, they will tell you need to login, is this something new?

Been happening to me as well. It's normal.

Really? In that case, I guess it's something new with Google then, not my PC's problem. And I have to tell you here, I login to Google, not Google Chrome.

Wait, I think I misread your post. Could be a bug or something of the like.

What? Oh dear...
I mean, I only login to Google with Chrome browser, not login to Chrome. It's normal that it's like that when I login, but recently I noticed even when I'm logout, it's still like that...
If it's a bug then I'm very worried...

Log in on chrome browser, log into chrome AND google. Log in to google alone, chrome not effected. So if you log into your google account on google's website, chrome shouldn't be effected. but you say it is... Likely a bug like what @Flight has said

Yeah if you haven't login to google, Chrome's main page will look like the icon above. When login it will actually look like that below. But after loging out. My account bar still remains, but thankfully will tell you need to type your account and password.
I know that Chrome will not be affected if you just simply login to Google. But it will actually show your profile bar on the main page if you are login, and it should turned to default when log out.
If it's just a harmless bug I will ignore it. I just hope this doesn't indicate that I'm being hacked.

Why would it indicate you're getting hacked?

I see...

Sometimes you have to be cautious right?

Edit: Oh dear today I had just notice my entire profile bar is gone on the default page!
