Over the last month, a new shiny blue bar has appeared off and on at the top of the Yahoo search results page.  I haven’t seen it yet for myself, but there are a handful of screenshots floating around the web. It appears this is something Yahoo is testing, presumably for further implementation.

From the looks of it, you might be able to customize the color. It’s currently blue, but it looks as though it would be easy for Yahoo to offer users a selection of colors that they could choose from, although the blue does look nice. It’s a pretty big change from the way that it currently looks, so what do you think?

  1. I’m just numb with shock that CNN hasn’t picked up on this yet! Slow news day?

  2. I found it interesting and thought others would too because it’s a completely different look for Yahoo. Maybe I’m alone on this one though? :)

  3. The new interfaces are always a popular topic amoung tech sites, which is why we also report on interfaces that Google is testing.

    Looks cool. I want that!

  5. Is that sarcasm or did someone else actually find it interesting? :)

    I really do want it. No sarcasm, I swear ;)

  7. I thought it was actually pretty slick, too. I wonder how long it will be before a Greasemonkey script is available that gives Yahoo that look.

    Come on, it’s been a month, when are we gonna get that?

  9. I even went searching around and saw absolutely no signs of a script to do this. I’m pretty shocked.
