Google Themes

Wow, Google has done it again! I opened up my Google homepage to notice that you can set the theme for your homepage. I picked the seasonal theme, because I like the whimsy. The really cool thing is that it changes based on the time of day, season, etc...

Google has a brilliant strategy. They are slowly making you productive and happy on the web. It's not a huge shift, just small steps, each one increasing your happiness. Eventually, you won't even consider using a desktop app, because you'll be completely comfortable with the web based ones. The content can be updated constantly, you take it with you wherever you go, you can share it easily with others, etc...

The people at Google are brilliant.
