Google Suggest To Become Default, Google Says
By: Philipp Lenssen 2008-08-26 Google just announced they will start to roll out Google Suggest as a default feature for the Google.com homepage over the next week. For instance, when you enter presid with Suggest, below the search box choices like presidential polls, presidential election and more will pop up, to be selected and then searched for using e.g. the arrow and return keys. Already, besides the Google Labs experiment which started in 2004, auto-complete features are available on the homepage of Google China*. As Ive never been a regular user of Google Suggest Im curious if that feature will be useful or annoying in the long run during daily usage. Google is convinced that it 1) helps formulate queries, 2) reduces spelling errors, and 3) saves keystrokes.
