Anyone else notice that the "more" drop down box on the homepage removed a lot of the products that used to be in it and added an re-added a link to the old "even more" page. Plus the drop down box now includes YouTube.

Some links were removed last week:

Google appears to be experimenting quite a bit with the link bar at the moment, maybe we'll get customisation soon.

[Moved from "Google Adds YouTube to more in linkbar" -Philipp]

Google added YouTube and even more to the drop down menu on Google.com

[put at-character here]Philipp: In Germany it doesn't work. I tried it with youhide.com

Update: I'm now seeing the same Navbar as the US on Google (UK) except for the YouTube link.

Oddly though, Google Product search uses "Google Mail" as the link to Gmail instead of just "Mail".

Now, [Shopping] has replaced [Products] in the menu bar.

I'm seeing shopping too. Interesting move, but understandable move considering the season.

I see Shopping as well ... I don't really like how Google uses its homepage to promote other products too much ... (especially those that aren't really that special though sever good ads)

iGoogle is still out of the picture..

BTW,
You guys still ain't getting YouTube on the list?
