FYI,
that link worked earlier this AM. I guess we weren't supposed to be loooking at it... Hopefully, Google Legal dept isn't going to subpoenas AN anytime soon.... Seriously, it is essentially a google search page with a os x feel... they have a dock button/widgets above the search bar with the icons for each function... and as above, a poem about mac os. really cool. To quote Stephen King in Tommyknockers... "Too late, too late, too late, TOOO LATTEE!!!" |

Where it has the different types of searches (ie Web/Images/News/Froogle) it had their icons. And the icons zoomed as you scrolled over them, and the name appeared over top, much like it does in the dock. It was relatively the same except it had the poem I showed earlier on the page.

Woah. Gone...
It was just a bunch of icons over the google search box instead of the text hyperlinks that are normally there. They also behaved like the dock (with magnification). Edit: The thread at AI nailed it. Probably copyright issues with "X", the poem, and the "dock". 1215/234215 (top .51875%) People really have got to stop thinking there is only one operating system, one economic system, one religion, and one business model. -EvilTwinSkippy (/.)

Here's a kinda working version of it.

Much more likely that people here have lost their minds and attribute every Internet oddity to the work of Apple Legal.

Bingo.
In case no one noticed, Google Labs is a testing ground for new features. You should expect things there to come and go and work and break without notice.

I'm not sure what the big deal is. Rollovers on the icons to make them look bigger?

Personally, I Think it would be neat if they made it so safari users are automatically forwarded to the fuax-es-ten google homepage. Just for fun, of course ideally it would be an option for those who don't care. |

I wonder if GoogleX was meant as a tribute to Apple during the upcoming anniversary and release of Tiger? You know how they do themed pages for certainly key dates throughout the year, this might have been a preview of what is coming in April.
