How to remove the new Google sidebar from search page

Some weeks ago I wrote that Google had rolled out a new design for their search page. Later it turned out to be just a test run. The real changes went live yesterday. Anyway, if the sidebar is annoying you and you wish to go back to the old design, this is what you need to do.

Method 2

If you use Firefox you have another way of achieving the result – through the Stylish addon. Install this addon and then add the following script to it. Save it and you are done.

@-moz-document domain(google.co.uk) {
#leftnav {
          display:none !important;
          }
#center_col {
              margin-left:0px !important;
             }
}

How to Schedule Changes to Your Facebook Page Cover Photo

Facebook’s current layout, the so called Timeline, features a prominent, large cover photo that some people are using in a lot of different creative ways. Timeline is also available for Facebook Pages that people can use to promote their website or business or event. Although you can change the cover photo as often as you like, it’s meant to be static – something which you design and leave it for at least a few weeks or months like a redesigned website. However, there are times when you may want to change the cover photo frequently and periodically to match event dates or some special promotion that you are running or plan to run. So, here is how you can do that.
