Sorry, MPs put the search buttons on expenses. They had to give them back.

speaking of them, maybe I missed the memo but why are they like this? I noticed they switched from aqua to these recently but I can't pinpoint when it happened.

Ok.. sorted! It appears that google are doing some testing of their homepage. My comp obviously had a cookie that removed these buttons and added the fade effect!

Cleared Cookies... fixed!

I had the missing buttons feature this morning at work, but all was returned to normal by the time that I left.

turtle: clicking those buttons doesn't do anything. Is this a trick?
