Google would be altering its Home Page for the first time since 1996. It will be adding its Newsfeed relating to sports, events, and internet related subjects into Google.com page quite soon. So now along with the search function, personalized information would be part of the search engine page.

Google has since forever kept its famous homepage with its logo and a search box where billions of users daily search information. The background has been white and there is nothing more on the page since ages, now adding feeds on the page would work or not, it is too early to decide.

Vice President of Engineering at Google, Shashi Thakur said that you will find top stories in your vicinity and globally, sports main news, national, international highlights and a feature to read more in the renewed version of Google.com. Those who want to read new of a genre would be able to easily click from google.com page and read it.

What would be included on the main search page, would it be an easy access for all users or not and would it make Google position even stronger as a search engine, we will see in upcoming months.
