Tried to search for my favorite character when I was just shocked with the change.
Can someone provide more details?
Personal is a new option of Google Search that is not integrated
directly in the algorithm that determines which search results are
returned to users when they run searches on Google.
It is a new option under the more link instead which you can load.
Please note that personal is only an option there if you are signed in
to a Google account, and that the new feature won't work yet for
Google Apps customers.

I'm trying to use Google Tag Manager for a site created using Google classic Sites, but I haven't had any luck so far. This question seems to have been up on a few forums, but I was not able to find any definitive answer to this end.
Help would be greatly appreciated!
You've probably seen this page - Configure Google Analytics for Google Sites, but I don't believe there is a way to add custom javascript to a google sites page, at least not yet. You might be better off buying your own domain and hosting it somewhere if you want access to GTM.
You can now use the 'embed' option in google sites to add arbitrary html/css/javascript to the site. I added the tracking code created by google tag manager and embedded it in the footer of my google site.
Directions from Google
I am developing a product which analyze Gmail account data and for that I need to allow user to log in to their Gmail account from my product. Now everything is going perfect no problem is there in execution. But when a new user come each time he/ she has to resolve Google Captch page (https://accounts.google.com/DisplayUnlockCaptcha). Now this is being hesitation to users and I want to skip this step. So is there any way through which I can eliminate this step?
Please help, thanks in advance.
Thanks,

After a long research I came to know that I can my domain to Google account which will allow me to register my web application. Anyone can register through this link https://accounts.google.com/ManageDomains
It's just simple many documents available for guidance.

I'm making an app and I plan to have some cloud happening with it, but I do not want to create a user data base and have the users need to remember their username and password.
Since it will be distributed through the chrome app store it's basically guaranteed that the user will have a google account. All I want to do is:
Get the user's email through the google account stuff. If I get it through there, well then their email is all the authentication I need to get that user's data.
If I end up putting the application on something other than chrome browser, I'll just have the user use their email to request a validation link, and then I'll send them a validation code for that account, they put the validation code into the application, it takes that as a verified user, so that's secure and easy as well.
EDIT: I'm looking into this. So far I have:
OAuth 2
Google API
But I have a problem that I don't know what to set as my javascript origins in the Google API and there isn't too much info on this abroad. If anyone can tell me what javascript origins I need to set for a chrome extension to access google api it would be a great help.
PS: Thanks for down vote, this is why I love resorting to stack exchange.
Hmmm, I think the only reason this was voted down is the fact that this question may be been asked somewhere on the site already (but I'll help you and give give a 1up).
So what you are wanting to use the Google OpenID. You will have to register your application with Google so they can provide OAuth2 tokens for you application. I have not done this with Google but with other services and it is pretty easy, just search around.
In terms of obtaining OAuth2 for your application in the chrome extension - this can be a pain since the extension is sandboxed and Google's example uses OAuth not OAuth2.
Here is solution I host on GitHub for this - I also use this in my extension GitHub Repositories:
https://github.com/jjNford/oauth2-chrome-extension
Hope this helps in some way. Don't get discourages with StackOverflow, it is a great resource with many great contributors.
Good luck!
I had to up vote you too as I'm tracking down a related issue so here is what I've found that may help.
According to these directions - http://code.google.com/p/google-api-javascript-client/wiki/Authentication - "In the "Authorized JavaScript Origins" box, enter the protocol and domain for your site." This should be the protocol (http:// or https://) followed by any optional subdomain followed by your domain name and no trailing slash. Nothing after the domain name.
This prevents certain kind of security attacks, see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Same_origin_policy.
There are some related questions here that I found that may help:
Problems with Google Picker API and selecting Google Drive items and google apis console 'Javascript origins'.
Now with all of that said, I am still trying to track down what values to put in there for one of my sites hosted as a Google Site, as none of the obvious values are working for me. So there may be some subtlety there that I have missed in this explanation.
Is it legal to use the google search results in my own website not using the google custom search that google provides?
I have 2 different cases:
The first is that I design a search box, with a google logo and provide options so the user selects which type of content (web, images, videos...), and the the results open in a new window with the normal google search results page. it means I submit the the search query from my website to the google search results.
The second is that I design both the search box and the results page so that the results are shown in my website instead of the google search results page.
I found an example for this:
http://demo.tutorialzine.com/2010/09/google-powered-site-search-ajax-jquery/search.html
NB: In both of the cases I will include a google logo and link to the original google.com website as credit.
So which of the two cases or are they both legal?
Thanks.
You may be able to use the Google AJAX API for your purposes. See:
Am I allowed to use the Google AJAX Search API on my site?
Google also provides documentation for developers and example code.
For the legality of specific uses, you should refer to Google AJAX Search API Terms of Use and a lawyer. Good thing you said you don't want to use custom search, because the Google Custom Search Terms of service seem to specifically exclude using it with new windows and within frames in sections 1.4(b) and 1.4(c).
I'd like to know if there is a way to detect whether the user has entered the website from an Organic Link from Google on certain key words?
What I am trying to do is provide additional information to appear to those who found my site via Google?
Thanks!
Use Google Analytics
Sign up for an account and just add a small snippet of Javascript to your site. It's really easy to set up and track links from google and even the exact search terms used!
