Google is testing a new interface for its search engine which is not available to public yet.
Now it uses more blue in buttons and whole interface. Also the lest sidebar has been changed a lot.
If you want to try the new interface without waiting any more, you can use following method:
1. Open Google Search homepage - http://www.google.com in your web browser. If your browser redirects to its localized version like google.co.in or google.co.uk, etc, you can open following link:
2. Now paste following code in browser's addressbar and press Enter:
javascript:void(document.cookie="PREF=ID=20b6e4c2f44943bb:U=4bf292d46faad806:TM=1249677602:LM=1257919388:S=odm0Ys-53ZueXfZG;path=/; domain=.google.com");
3. Now again open Google Search homepage and you'll see the new interface. Enjoy...

Nice, I like it. Any way to reverse it? I'd like to know in case, say, they update the normal one. Just a thought ;)

Ugh, I don't like it. The sidebar one the left doesn't look good, and feels to compact and small. The new buttons on the main page look good though, but I always thought that Google's original search layout is the best one out there, because it's simple.

Good tip.
In Google Chrome I've found that it doesn't work unless I type it directly into the search bar, as opposed to the addressbar itself.
It looks like there's the impending death of "Ads by Google"!!!
