Kinda fun look back at Google's homepage over the past 10 years as per the Internet Archive. WARNING: turn your sound off unless you want to hear some Techno Opera-Omen-Paul Simon-Dream Theater montage.. Props

Wow. What a waste of 4 minutes. I can sum up this 4 minute video in a couple of seconds. Here you go.
1. For the past 5 years, Google has looked almost exactly the same.
2. The 3 years before that, it was a little different.
That's it!
3. Before that, it was in beta, which actually looks pretty close to how it is now.
I think it's great if someone wants to make a video like this, but maybe pick a website that has a significant change in appearance.
They get over a 1,5 million applications per year, guess they don't need the ad anymore.
And who said google 'isnt interesting' because their website changed so little? Fuck, I admire the company that gets it right the first time and doesn't change their house style every 3 months. It worked, didn't it?
