YouTube Notifications in the Navigation Bar
YouTube has recently started to experiment with replacing Google+ notifications in the navigation bar with YouTube notifications. You get notifications for recently uploaded videos from your subscribed channels, but only if you've enabled notifications for those channels. For example, you can go to the subscription manager and click the bell icon next to a channel to enable or disable notifications.
The settings button sends you to the Notifications section from YouTube's Settings page and the 3-dot icon next to each notification lets you turn off notifications from the corresponding channel.
If you don't like this experiment, you can always clear cookies for youtube.com in your browser's settings and opt out.
Google's New Mobile UI for Recipe Search
Just in time for New Year's dinner, Google has a new mobile interface for recipe search. I searched for [avocado mayo] and noticed a long list of related searches below the search box and ads: salad, egg salad, chicken, avocado salad and more. You can select more than one related search and this helps you refine the results.
When selecting a related search, you get a completely different interface that only shows recipes: bigger expandable cards, bigger thumbnails, infinite scrolling.
