I'm sure most people would have noticed that in the last few days Google have made changes to increase the size of both the 'search box' and text/font.


From the official Google blog:
Now s-u-p-e-r sized!
Our homepage and on our search results pages, our search box is growing in size. Although this is a very simple idea and an even simpler change, we're excited about it — because it symbolizes our focus on search and because it makes our clean, minimalist homepage even easier and more fun to use. The new, larger Google search box features larger text when you type so you can see your query more clearly. It also uses a larger text size for the suggestions below the search box, making it easier to select one of the possible refinements.


IMO perhaps Google could have mentioned the change on their home page as I can see many posts (elsewhere) where people are questioning it and there are some duff answers about!

So thought it was worth a post here informing people of the change :¬)
