I was hopeful the "defrost" button would simulate someone running their hand over the screen.

If you click and drag across the screen, then it will have the effect of doing this with your finger :)

I think that part of the effect only works on chrome. Actually I can't get any of it work work on IE9 on Win7, it just shows regular serach results.

Edit: oh I see, you have to wait for the "Defrost" button to show up before you can "wipe" the frost off. Still doesn't work in IE though :)

Works on Firefox 8 (Linux).

Wiping off the condensation works on Safari 5.1.2, too.

I blew in my microphone half-hoping mist would form on top of the window.

Hahah I would be worried if they were using my microphone without my permission
