It looks like google has come up with a new idea to help the end user search. As you type in a search query, a dropdown list with possible terms appears and updates as you type. I found it really quick and most of the results in the dropdown were right on.

What do you guys think?

It will take some time to get use to, but thanks, It does make it a little quicker.

Very neat.. I think I like this.. I think it will come in handy for times when we know what we are looking for, but aren't positive on what it will be under.
Thanks!

# FORUM RULES

1. No personal, racial or religious insults (flaming) - They have no place here on the TFP. This includes bigoted jokes. When in doubt, err on the side of good taste.

2. No spamming - Post at a reasonably patient rate so as not to fill the 'latest posts' list with your name. 95% of your posts should be of respectable length and substance.

3. No site plugging or advertising - You are allowed one link to any site of your choice through your 'Homepage' option in your profile. Do not post any of your sites or affiliated sites in either your posts or signature.

4. No baiting (trolling) - Posting comments with the intention to draw the ire of your fellow board members is just as bad as insulting them directly.

5. You must be 18 years of age - The TFP is an adult-oriented community and thus you must be 18 years of age or older and you must be able to act the part as well. This is strictly enforced without exception.

6. No pictures of underaged persons are allowed - No baby pictures, pictures of your youngest cousin, or pictures of you before you turned 18. No third party pictures of this sort either.

7. Discussions of how to use, buy, or get illegal drugs may not take place in the public areas of the forums.

8. Requests and advice for warez or serial codes is forbidden.

9. Images containing bestiality, snuff, or scat are not allowed.

10. Do not post anyone's personal information (full name, phone number, address, email) without their permission. No exceptions.

11. If you are male, then your TFP persona is male. If you are female, then your TFP persona is female. There are to be no exceptions.

12. Just posting a link is not a satisfactory post.

13. Piggybacking on accounts is not allowed. Do not let your brother, sister, girlfriend, husband, best friend or WHOEVER use your account because it will get banned.

14. Posting links to schemes in order to achieve free merchandise (example: free iPods, free flatscreen TVs) will get you banned without question.

Very cool...Google amazes me.. I've been using GMail for a couple of months now and between that, their search engine and the other free services they offer, Google seems to go everything right! What will they think of next?

Bamrak · 12-11-2004, 06:12 PM

Wait until the Google Browser comes out :P

sandeep · 12-12-2004, 07:29 AM

Hmmmm, i dunno how much I like this. but cool idea. A combo of Amazon Suggestions and Google search results.

They're taking over...

skaven · 12-12-2004, 10:34 AM

I like it. The only thing Google still hasn't been able to help me with with any degree of regularity is figuring out loosely-coupled information, such as "What was the name of the background track in that BMW commercial?". Aside from vague questions like that, google has never let me down...
