Just saw in one of my site stats http://www.google.com/uds/samples/apidocs/helloworld.html WoW google is taking the 2.0 way too
It looks like that page is a demo/example for using their API. They would have to be insane to use such a bad interface.
lol...they would never used an interface like that. It's obviously just some testing. Google is not that stupid and so far I have been very impressed with all the interfaces for all of their products. Think about how much time they would put into a redesign of their main product...
http://code.google.com/apis/ajaxsearch/documentation/ The /uds/ dir was added to their robots.txt file in May of 2006.
Indeed, it is a demo for the API. And that makes me happy! I would use Ask.com even more if Google switched to that horrible look themselves!
you should see some of the old logos google used to have for their site, they used to have a page with loads of logos u could use to link to them and they looked like they were made on paintbrush lol i think they spent too much time programming and less time designing those days havnt got a link for anyone but if u look hard enough in the wayback machine u should be able to find em, they r worth the search!
