Well I just noticed that Google has added Scholar to the main menu. I've never really used the service, nor do I plan to. I just wanted to be the first one to mention it.

Personally, I use scholar a lot and it is good that they moved it to front page. However I think the updates should be more frequent. I have seen only one update since they released the service.

After only one day, scholar is gone from main page...

Oh this explains this behaviour.. http://schoogle.blogspot.com/2005/06/scholar-on-home-page.html

It looks like you can see the scholar link only if you are connecting from a *.edu domain.. I tested and it is true.
