Google tools causing chaos!
Google have created a lot of fantastic tools for various purposes but as a friend of mine recently discovered there are also negatives.
My friend had a client ring them recently up and exclaim “you’ve broken our website!”, confused my friend asked exactly how their website was broken… “all my form fields are yellow, why did you do that, please change them back to white!”, after explaining to the client that no updates had in fact been made to the site recently, my associate had a look to see what was going on, all looked fine on his machine so asked a few mates to check it out, all looked good on theirs too!
Eventually he went to the client’s office to look at the site on their machine - when he got there he found that they had installed Google toolbar (which by default change your forms to yellow!) Problem solved, however do you think he sent Google the bill for the hour of work he spent trying to solve this problem??
If you know of any “Helpful tools” that also cause headaches, please share them!
