It has since then be turned into an add-on for the Mozilla Firefox web browser which made installation and usage easier for many users. The installation is actually the only manual process that is required of the user. Everything else is automatically handled after the first restart of the Internet browser.</p><p><span

href="http://www.globexdesigns.com/products/gr/">Google Redesigned</a> (via <a
href="http://lifehacker.com/#!5231383/gmail-redesigned-30-focuses-on-speed-and-message-space">Lifehacker</a>) changes the style and layout of Gmail, Google Calendar and Google Reader. It places an icon in the status bar of the web browser that can be right-clicked to deactivate the extension for each service individually but also to view the source code which leads to the latest CSS file located on the servers of the developers. This is probably only interesting for a handful of users though. The Google websites that are supported will look completely different beginning with the login screen.</p><p><img

Some element dimensions have been changed to provide a better experience to the user but if it was there before it will be there after the installation as well.</p><p>Google Redesigned is a work in progress. It will appeal to users who do not like the default design of Gmail, Google Reader or Google Calendar. Users should not notice any page loading time differences.</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.ghacks.net/2009/04/29/google-redesigned/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> </channel> </rss>
