Whether you choose a photo of a loved one, a picture of your favorite vacation destination or even a design you created yourself, Google.com is now yours to customise. For those of you who want to enjoy the clean, simple look of Google as well as your personalised view, we’ve made it easy to switch between your customised search page and classic Google.
We are beginning to roll out this new feature to users in the U.S. over the next few days, so if you don’t see a link in the lower left-hand corner of Google.com now, check back soon. For those of you outside of the U.S., you can expect to see this new feature in the coming days as we roll it out internationally to offer similar, consistent experiences globally.
And if you’ve customised your look with a fun personal photo we’d love to see what your new homepage looks like. Tweet a picture of your page with the hashtag #myGooglepage and share it with us!
We hope you enjoy this fun new feature and that it makes Google search more your own.
