I would imagine it would be a great feeling if the project you worked on at Google made it to the select list of apps that show up on the google.com page (currently: Images, Video, News, Maps).

Froogle got kicked off of this list, to give way to Video (yay YouTube?).

I hadn't realised that if you click on more you get a small inline div popup showing you books, froogle, and groups.

I know google likes to keep things minimal, but do we really need these steps?

Couldn't you fit those three projects in on the page somewhere? Would it be SO bad to Effect.Appear a nicer grouping when I first ask for more? How about letting me change this grouping at /ig ? Or watching what I happen to use and changing it to reflect my preferences?
