[TAandy]

is it just me, or, when i go to google, i have to make a mouse movement (could be a keyboard stroke?) and then the menu shows up at the top of the screen.
ie, the menu containing the mail link, among all their other stuff???

It is not the case with the iGoogle homepage, so I don't end up having this issue, thank god.

Google's Menu system is a PITA. Let us customize it please.

Don't use it if it annoys you. Switch to Bing. 🙂

If I use NoScript in Firefox to turn off scripts on Google.com, the menu shows immediately. Not sure what other unforeseen side-effects this might cause, but it works at the home page.

Personally, I never even see the Google homepage anymore; I created bookmarks with keywords in Firefox for various searches (g=google, gnews=news, gimg=Google Image Search, etc.)

I noticed this too, it's a change they made recently. It's kinda awkward.

Consider using google.com/ig (personalized google). I use google for searches not to go to the links on the top of the page.

Or if you are logged into a google account, the home page is that personalized google page.

lol i always use the searchbox in firefox etc. didn't notice this till now

Yeah, I notice that about a week ago, I don't like it either. Don't know why they thought they didn't to add a script to the simplest looking webpage on the web.

I find this delay annoying too. It's not on the Firefox version of the site yet though.
