Here is Microsofts version of the site: http://www.start.com/3/ Its interesting how there is no M$ banner stuck on it. It does seem to function MUCH slower than googles, but I assume thats due to it being in testing phase, I havent checked it capability to see if it has more or less to add to the "game", Ill let you guys know once Ive played around tonight !

It reminds me of a toolbar on a webpage Rolling Eyes

The idea was right but there are some features missing such as a sort function for the 'favourites'. Also i find it funny how u've edited the pic and removed your email address (it was there when this thread was first created) Very Happy

But you didn't removed your e-mail adress from your profile So i don't understand why you removed it from that screenshot It makes sense if you have 2 gmail accounts ... Best PICKUP LINE : "Hey, does this rag smell like chloroform to you?"

haha, I didnt remove it for any reason really, if you goto my website (in my profile) you can get my name, my job, my address . I did remove someones Livejournal name from the picture then decided to go wild and just remove other stuff . Sublime: You should know Im not too concerned with privacy, I don't fear people, they should fear me (hahaha) Either way I love the Google homepage, it makes life much easier! There is much room for improvement but it is only in test phase, Im constantly watching the groups about its development and putting my thoughts accross !

It seems there are different versions of this page:

http://www.start.com/1/
http://www.start.com/2/
http://www.start.com/3/

I still prefer google's, but thats because i love google and hate M$, more importantly google search > all others.
