Its the type of social network launched by Google recently. According to Google

Sharing is a huge part of the web, a part that we think could be a lot simpler. That’s why we’ve been working on adding a few new things to Google: to make connecting with people on the web more like connecting with them in the real world.

Google Change the Position of URL in Search Engine Result Pages

Google Change the Position of URL

Last month, Google was testing the placement of URL in search engine result pages. Today, I think Google implement it globally or it may be another testing by Google.

But its looking very ugly. I do not like the position of URL appearing in Google search engine.

In Mozilla Firefox and Google Chroma browser, I found Google place the URL below the Title. See the snap shot below



But in Internet Explorer the result are showing as normal. See the image as below.



Did you like this change by Google ? You can discuss about changing position of URL in Google by making comment.

Logo1w - What is logo1w in Google ? Why Google give the Logo image name as logo1w ?

What is logo1w ?

logo1w is the name of Google logo. Its very interesting Google give their main logo name as logo1w.png and used image type as .png

Why Google give logo name as logo1w ?

I do not know, why Google has given the logo name as logo1w ? and I think Google did not use image optimization for this, because there was no use of giving name as logo1w.png. I think for better image optimization logo.png would be best and suitable name, but Google did not use this name.

After researching, I found that logo direct URL is http://www.google.com/intl/en_com/images/srpr/logo1w.png (It is working)

I tried http://www.google.com/intl/en_com/images/srpr/logo1.png (return 404 Error Page)

Also, I tried http://www.google.com/intl/en_com/images/srpr/logo.png (return 404 Error Page)

Both logo1.png and logo.png were not working. So, there may be any special reason Google give name as logo1w.png

Can you save Google logo directly ?

If you are using www.Google.com then can save Google logo. But if you are using www.google.co.uk or www.google.ca then you can not save image directly.

This means you can save logo of Google only from www.google.com

(1) For Google.com

Open Google.com and right click on the Google's Logo and with this you can save image directly. See the image

logo1w

(2) For Google.co.uk or Google.ca or for any other country

You will see their would be no option for saving Google's logo. See the snap shot below
