There are certain truths in the universe. The Cubs will suck. The Sun rises in the East. Google has a stark white home page. Well, Cubs fans have a little hope this year.

The Google personalized home page has a little color to it now. You can apply several set themes to your personalized homepage. Not only does it change the heading, but the text will change color and font depending on the theme that you choose.

The beach theme even tracks the movement of the Sun and Moon to your location. While I can’t see the Sun today, I’d know the approximate location by checking my Google homepage. That is if I’d care. But it’s a cool little feature that few other companies would even think of much less implement.

It’s rare that a simple skin selection would make news, but I’d bet you see a lot of pixels spilled on Google’s small change.
