Google:
Google Instant is a new search enhancement that shows results as you type. We are pushing the limits of our technology and infrastructure to help you get better search results, faster. Our key technical insight was that people type slowly, but read quickly, typically taking 300 milliseconds between keystrokes, but only 30 milliseconds (a tenth of the time!) to glance at another part of the page. This means that you can scan a results page while you type.
The most obvious change is that you get to the right content much faster than before because you don’t have to finish typing your full search term, or even press “search.” Another shift is that seeing results as you type helps you formulate a better search term by providing instant feedback. You can now adapt your search on the fly until the results match exactly what you want. In time, we may wonder how search ever worked in any other way.

westyits amusing to me that goolge has gr8 tech , but visualy it looks like shit .
Im not on about making it all graphical with blody images all over the place ,
I mean within the confines of just using bassic text and where you lay out other info at the sides of the screen.
allso new image search is shit , so much better before or basiccaly what bing had , the new thing when u click on an image and it is infront of the webpage is slow and horrable.
