my internet was fucked as of about 10pm last night

reaaaally slow. I tried lots of things, assuming it was my computer/connection, but no improvement.

It is probably google's fault.

Shalroth has a theory it happens everytime Apple bring out a new product

from all the Apple nuts hoggin the interwebs watching Steve Jobs blabbing on about it for the 2 weeks after...

It's all the Apple fanboi spunk - gums up teh intarwebs.

They upload it when they jack off over their new corner-less toy and Steve Jobs downloads it, partly to feed himself and partly to inpregnate a herd of blind cows in an underground dungeon in order to spit out more Apple programmers and designers.

Aha,

So, if you don't like their choice of huge pictures, you have to have a picasa account to upload your own background. Cunts.

Apparently it's just an experiment,

but if you want to turn it off, there's a Plain White theme you can choose.
