Some ago I showed you a Google experiment that changed the black navigation bar to gray. After teaching you how to activate this experiment, the test was deactivated by the search engine. Well then, For a few days the experiment has been available again and today I bring you again the trick that allows us to activate the gray navigation bar.
To activate this experiment, go to Google and open the Javascript Console of the browser you are using:
- Google Chrome: Tools, JavaScript Console.
- Mozilla Firefox: Web Developer, Web Console.
- Internet Explorer: Development Tools, Console.
Once the search engine's website has loaded, copy and paste the next code:
document.cookie=»NID=NID=67=uxmVmXVfmGd5AZ1a58Qi5ltvD9zLJNBuEFFOL_eeeu5STUQRQrIe3xdV10RcjXbLlfRJr4rtio-yQ3OoDXlx9rCLhvU364n7G2_gZPlROhvKjU4o_jcP3ilffgjWWGAX; path=/; domain=.google.com»;window.location.reload();
When the page has loaded, and if you have done everything right, you will be using the gray navigation bar. If the trick doesn't work for you, you can try this other method. First access Google from Chrome. Then install the extension Edit This Cookie. Once installed, with the secondary button on Google, select the Modify Cookies option. Look for a cookie called NID and modify its value by this:
NID=67=uxmVmXVfmGd5AZ1a58Qi5ltvD9zLJNBuEFFOL_eeeu5STUQRQrIe3xdV10RcjXbLlfRJr4rtio-yQ3OoDXlx9rCLhvU364n7G2_gZPlROhvKjU4o_jcP3ilffgjWWGAX
Hit Save changes and reload Google to see the navigation bar. If it disappears after a short time, repeat these same steps and, before clicking Save changes, select the option Protect from changes. This will prevent the cookie value from being modified.
