I remember using it with Live Search. Then Bing happened last year. And this morning I noticed Google do it. To emulate is to flatter. So does Google now. Google has begun to roll out it’s home page customization and is likely to roll across the world in the next few weeks.
Open your Google Home page and you would notice at the lower left corner the option, ‘Change background image‘. Click on it and you are taken to the next screen, with options: ‘From my computer, My Picasa Web photos, Public gallery and Editor’s Picks’. Choose any one of them and your ‘Google Home Page Customize’ is complete. You would be privy to your own ‘Customized Google Home Page’.

Click on the image to magnify.
You already have your background pictures, frames and what not. Do you really need it? I mean do you really need to ‘Customize Google Home Page’? At the end of the day what matters is, does Google deliver what you search for? Not all that eye candy. What do you think? Does customizing your Google home page help? How?
You love Bing because it offers you better pictures? Does it matter? How do those pictures help you, on the homepage?
* By the way, this Google Home Page Customization works only on Google.com not on any other country domain, like for example Google.us or Google.uk or Google.ru 🙁
