No Google search box for searches done with Chrome's Omnibox.<p>http://cl.ly/image/3U3l2A3l2D1j<p>Bold move. Anyone else seeing this?

It's happening on my Chrome for iOS for a week or so. I like it.<p>I also have new cleaner homepage that has almost no header<p><a href="http://i.imgur.com/bw4KpgC.png" rel="nofollow">http://i.imgur.com/bw4KpgC.png</a>

This really creeped me out when I saw it on the dev channel - enough that after using Chrome exclusively since 2009 I've moved to Firefox.<p>I love searching through the omnibox (and will go to the omnibox to refine a google search result page I'm on) but there's something deeply unsettling about integrating Google Search and Chrome in this way - I can't quite put my finger on it but I think it's because the URL isn't shown

Also the case on iOS Chrome: <a href="http://d.pr/i/9pwK" rel="nofollow">http://d.pr/i/9pwK</a><p>I think I first noticed it a week or two ago on desktop and iOS, so not sure if it's a version thing or an a/b test.

This was on for a while when I was on Chrome's dev release channel. It annoyed me, so I switched to beta.

I saw this for couple of days, but now I can't. It was really annoying :(
