You may already be aware the Chrome team is considering (or planning?) to change the menu/wrench icon into a hot-dogs-looking graphic. Observe the difference, from my Canary and stable builds:
 |
| Maybe hot dogs simply taste better than monkey wrenches. |
 |
| Maybe the wrench would taste better with some Franch fries, dressing, bread, or perhaps, a bottle of Peru. |
What do you think? Would you rather look for/click on hot dogs or a wrench? I can see the concern of how the lines would help people think of a menu, while the wrench would invite inappropriate thoughts of tinkering and settings.
ChromeStory reader Gil points out that in giving tech support to family members, referencing the wrench is real a time saver. On the other hand, what about those poor type-writer users who think clicking on the wrench will, at a minimum, blow up the computer, if not all of humanity and they're too afraid to ask for help?
What say ye? "Long Live the Wrench!" or "Vive La Différence!"? Please sound off.
