Experiments<\/h2>\n

Personas<\/h3>\n

Labs is expanding its experiment in personalization by launching the newest version of Personas<\/a> with a cleaner, friendlier look, and hundreds of new designs. With the support and imagination of the Labs community, Personas has evolved through a set of iterations but remained focused on three key concepts:<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 It shouldn\u2019t be hard to make your browser a little more fun and personal.
\n2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 You should be able to personalize your entire online experience with lots of great designs.
\n3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The artist in you should be able to treat the browser as your canvas.<\/p>\n
