Google search box bigger

I hate the nex box. I thought it was my browser doing something weird but now the truth. Don't like it.
 
It's driving me insane!!! People way across the office can now see all my porn keywords! :D
 
I read about it before I noticed it. I have to admit that I usually use the address bar in Firefox for my searches so it doesn't bother me as much.

I do think it is unnecessary though. Do they think we are all blind? Also when you are typing "Pamela Anderson huge hooters" into Google you don't want everyone around you seeing! ;)
 
I thought that I had broken something the first time I saw it. I suppose they did it for people with bad eyesight, don't they have Ctrl and + keys?

Isn't the font also different?

I think the font is just bigger so it looks thinner, could be wrong though...
 
If you have Firefox and want the old search box back, install Greasemonkey and then this script - click on "how do I use this" under the Install Now green button at top right of the page for more info.
 
When did the search settings move to the top right it used to be in the middle too, was lost a few times (set your Language, Number of results)
 
A whole article dedicated to a font increase in a search box. Wow lol.
 
Funny, on my windows pc in firefox it still looks the same, like the old one. I noticed though on my laptop firefox on Archlinux it does indeed look bigger...

Sounds like that's the first time you've had to deal with something being too big, for a change. ;)
