Is Google is ready to leave the familiar comfort of white backgrounds<\/a>?<\/p>\n

\"\"

Google.com<\/p><\/div>\n

This new Google homepage is part of their<\/a> Google+<\/a> push. Notice the black bar at the top.<\/p>\n

\"\"

Google Reader<\/p><\/div>\n

The black bar even invaded my Reader<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"

Updated Google Reader Mobile Appbar<\/p><\/div>\n

An Appbar has even taken over their mobile web app.<\/p>\n

\"\"

Apps Section of the Mobile Appbar<\/p><\/div>\n

This Apps Section shows when you press “more” on the screen above. Oddly, Apps (and not Search) is the default choice.<\/p>\n

\"\"

Search Section of the Mobile Appbar<\/p><\/div>\n

This is what pressing “Search” reveals.<\/p>\n

\"\"

Bottom of expanded Search Appbar Section<\/p><\/div>\n

This screen shows you what the bottom of the Appbar looks like. Just in case you forgot you were in the Reader mobile web app.<\/p>\n

\"\"

Google+ Invite Request Screen<\/p><\/div>\n

Back to Google+<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This is what it looks like when you go to the site uninvited. You can request an invite by clicking on “Keep Me Posted”. Notice “+You” now appears at the top left of the black bar.<\/p>\n

\"\"

Google+ Invite Request Form<\/p><\/div>\n

This form appears after clicking “Keep Me Posted”.<\/p>\n

A strange gaffe here. I have to enter my name and e-mail? If you look at the prior screen, I’m logged into Google Accounts, but here they ask for my info again.<\/p>\n

Google Maps (when it finally recognized your Google Account) was the best thing ever. No longer did you have to fill out both the “From” and “To” fields to e-mail map directions. As it currently does, the “From” is pre-populated with your Google Account e-mail address. Recognizing your Google Account after you click “Keep Me Posted” is what Google+ should do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
