Welcome to mid 2009 Google! I've been enjoying this for a year. Now when is Google going to get live in page video previews in video search like Bing has had for a year. Seems like Google's been playing catchup to Bing in the UI department.

These commercials are hilarious!

I just attempted to try it out. Went for something nice and innocuous, something that would be safe for work.

Had the new yesterday for a few minutes, now back to the old.

Why don't they give an option of which to use? I like seeing the links of where the stuff is located. Or maybe there's a way to do that with the new one, but I haven't had a chance to mess with it yet...

maybe they are doing a OS/browser check and only displaying the new version to certain Operating systems and certain browsers?

I'm on my MBP at work, in Firefox 3.5.10 I can't get it to work, but in Safari 4.0.5 I can.

So they gotta be doing some browser [version] checks.

Just upgraded to FF 3.5.11 on my Mac, still doesn't work. Wonder if it's working on 3.6? Guess I won't know until FF fixes the duplicate window bug for mac users in 3.6. That's why I haven't upgraded yet.

Use the filter on the left for specific sizes. That's what I always do, much better filtering FTW.

You can revert to the old style if you click switch to basic view at the bottom of the page. I kinda like the new version....
