Not seeing it here, but its a nice addition. Allowing additional links without adding clutter.

Nice. And consistent.

I haven't seen this live yet. But the interesting note is the screenshot was taken without the user being logged into his/her Google account. Will we see one version of the link toolbar when we are logged in and a different one if were weren't logged in?

I just wish that they have the same structure across all their services... Gmai, reader, groups, etc etc , plus hompy!!

I was using Google Images yesterday and noticed that they have now added a "Search the Web" button as well as a "Search Images" button. Also, there was a link below the blue bar that reads "Images Showing: All Image Sizes ..." The link pointed to the same link as the search the web button.

I can still see the additional button, but the link has disappeared. This is yet another change that I can't wait for Google to remove and put back to normal.

Google Images works fine and doesn't need any change, Google! Leave it alone!

Absolutely. These are the different links I've seen just in the accounts I have access to (and this doesn't include all known variations because others have seen links to Reader in there too):

What's interesting is that the 2nd one is similar (although not the same) to the home page test, as it includes Images, News, Maps and Mail – it's just missing Video – and also has a link to "More" rather than "More Services".

I saw that last week....Of course, after searching the page for the links in the usual spot.
