I fail
I didn't notice robotman had already posted one.....probobly because of that glitch where if your sitting on the page it thinks youve seen the new posts and doesn't tell you

Well if your looking at the firefox homepage with the built in google that might be why, but if your looking at actual google...i dont know why its doing it

There was a Google Blog post about it:

And an unofficial Google Blog talked about a greasemonkey script to reverse the change:

Yes, I read blogs about google.

I don't like it. It makes me feel like a little kid or someone's grandparent, reading large print stuff.

i dont like it because when you type in something, and the drop down list comes up, its all in bold. and it's unnecessary. that's one of my pet peeves. :shock:
