Anyone else hate the new Google search that they are using now? It's freaking annoying, why do we need a search engine to try and guess my thoughts? Are people so lazy they can't type out the entire words they are searching for?

I don't like it. Of course I mostly use Bing so...

Oh, you can turn it off, I didn't know that. Just found that out, good to know. At least until they make it standard.

It isn't foolproof. I had to type out "Chinese midget porn" earlier today. Google can't read my mind.

I think you have to have a mind first.

You serious? The new image search is a million times better than the old. No need to page through, just keep scrolling.

The new image search is much better, I don't care if they ripped the idea from Bing. A good idea is a good idea.

Crazy that it will predict what I'm going to search and then change the results as I type each letter. Crazy fast.

'Crazy fast' is how I would describe seeing it the first time too.

Well the actual search results are ok, though way to clustered for my liking. But Im talking when you click an image and then it gives you the image with the page it is from in the background.

I agree. I liked the previous result where it would be bannered at the top with the thumbnail, page link, and a close icon with the entire regular page below it.

I just tried using it for the second time and it basically said it crashed. i tried it again and it just feels slow as shit. the old way was fine, i dont see the point in bringing up actual web results before i am done typing. I mean, when i am looking for "boobs" i dont want to see borders.com or then boostmobile.com. i want BOOBS!

I like it.
Also, if you use Bing and like it you're an asshole. Bing sucks.

How does it suck?
It does the same search engine things as google but with a different UI. And it has better integration of information in it's pages. For example it has Wolfram Alpha integreted into its searches. Or its travel search service which works sort of like Kayak in that it searches multiple airlines/hotels and travel sites for the best deals.
You don't have to prefer it or even like it but it definitely doesn't suck.

That's useless to most people. I prefer a non-BS search.
Also, cocks.

So, um, don't use it then?
It's not like it shoves the travel search in your face or anything.
