    Groovle.com - Your Groovy Google Custom Search Homepage

    groovle

    If you're tired of the plain white backdrop that Google provides for its main search page, use Groovle to make the page more personalized and "groovy." Groovle's a pretty simple site that allows you to choose from their various categories of images they have available to post as a replacement for the Google white background, or you can upload your own photo to your page. Some of the possibilities on their site include having a hunky Jake Gyllenhaal or Johnny Depp looking at you before you begin your search, or maybe the Orioles or Capitals logo, or a fall nature scene, or the classic beach picture. These are all a lot more fun compared to the plane white Google backdrop that usually greets you when you do your searches.

    In their own words

    "Groovle - Your GROOVY Google Homepage - was created so people can customize their Internet homepage with images ranging from favorite celebrities or sports teams to more personal images of friends and family etc."

    Why it might be a killer

    The majority of people online use Google to do their searches, and it's often up more than the covered up backdrop wallpaper, so designing the page you see all of the time makes sense. They've got some cool pictures to choose from for your background, and it's really easy to do, so anyone could do it in a matter of seconds.

    Some questions

    Will they add lots of other pictures to choose from? Will they make it possible to view pictures you upload as a fullscreen like their images? Will you be able to customize the size of your image more specifically to your browser versus the medium and large options that are only available currently? What other features are they planning on adding?
