View Full Version : Google Suggest

As you type into the search box, Google Suggest guesses what you're typing and offers suggestions in real time. This is similar to Google's "Did you mean?" feature that offers alternative spellings for your query after you search, except that it works in real time. For example, if you type "bass," Google Suggest might offer a list of refinements that include "bass fishing" or "bass guitar." Similarly, if you type in only part of a word, like "progr," Google Suggest might offer you refinements like "programming," "programming languages," "progesterone," or "progressive." You can choose one by scrolling up or down the list with the arrow keys or mouse.

It works in Opera, or atleast in 7.6 Preview 4. Well actually it only works once then you need to refresh it.
Anways this is utterly useless. Why would I need something to suggest to me when I should already know what I'm searching for, why else would you be using a search engine if you don't know what to look for.

An encyclopedia is a book, it doesn't make suggestions.
