Just wondering if something has changed on google lately – as in the last two days…

I load it up and i get the google logo and the blank search box, with text below saying press enter to search. That's it. It's not until i move my mouse does the rest of the stuff appear around the page – but there are no manual click "search" buttons etc.

Is it just me or can i turn it off etc ?

No idea why you would want to turn it off.

But then I've got no idea why anyone still uses the actual Google homepage either.

Was just wondering if i had done something etc.

Thanks
