The only possible reason for Google NOT offering the option to collapse the sidebar is the hope that they will generate a few more ad-clicks by drawing the user’s eye away from the relevant search results. Pretty low for a company whose mission statement is all about the user experience. http://tinyurl.com/38jjbyr

You people are all stupid, the ‘new design’ is a step backwards, the colors look childish, there is tons of wasted white space (instead of the old compact view), the sidebar in results page is stupid, the ‘fade in’ effect is the most annoying thing possible, the only good thing that is the fact it doesn’t play some crappy music by default (I’m sure it will in the future, and I’m sure all you idiots would love it)

An always permanently shown search options side bar is not part of a friendly user interface.

I just want an option to show/hide this side bar, if you like it you show it, so since I don’t like it, I wanna hide it

For me this is an extremely stupid design and I have rational reasons for that. The human brain tries to process images in case it perceived that there is something weird about it. Different brains process colour shades in different ways but there are benign colour shades and there are controversial ones like this one. Some love it and perhaps they would feel in a nirvana mode but unfortunately this could underline brain activity problems or drugs/alcohol consumption issues. The font is very bad as well. Actually it is extremely bad. They need to be out of their mind to put a font that would affect the sight of people with eye problems. This one does and affects my sight. For me the designers are armatures who are recklessly playing in what they don’t understand. This design has health affecting issues and will take them to courts if they did not put a disclaimer.

I hate hate hate the new interface. I hate the left panel. I prefer the old simple Google. The new interface is busy and annoying.
