RE: Googles "fade-in" effect
completely useless since I'm moving the mouse most of time when browsing (for mouse gestures, navigating between tabs, just moving the mouse around randomly when bored)

i kinda like the clean look though..

Not saying it's a good reson, but Google has always absolutely hated any links on their main page. Any link on there which doesn't lead to a search results page with ads is millions of lost advertising income per year. They also resisted putting a link to their privacy policy on the home page for a long time.

I could probably spew out a few, but they'd be utter bs, try asking Google :p

It would be interesting to see if Google keeps track of how many times people do move the mouse and thus the other stuff gets faded in. I can't imagine that most people do not move the mouse.

I really don't..
Most of the time when I want to use language tools or anything else, I Google it and press I feel lucky.

Yet, when I'm at home and now at work, the query is done automatically in Chrome.

Also, it doesn't work on FireFox, probably AdBlockPlus is doing it :p, the links show up normally, no "fade in".

Didn't know wtf you guys were talking about till I tried in Internet Explorer :(
