Suggest feature finally makes to Google homepage
Google Suggest feature has finally landed out of Google Labs onto Google search engine. This AJAX feature is not something new and has already been added by other search engines such as Yahoo, Ask and newly launched cuil.
Earlier I was dependant on Google Suggest to find out other suggestions related to a particular term or phrase but now Google homepage is all what I will need. The good thing about the results offered by this particular AJAX feature are that it even highlights the number of pages competing for the specific term. This feature will not only make searching easy for users but also make the job easier for SEO consultants.
With Google holding more than half of the search engine market share you could surely expect new features from Google in coming days if it intends to maintain its dominance.

I have found this feature to be incredibly annoying! Seeing a long drop down list of “valuable suggestions” when I type the first 2 letters of a search query is simply distraction that my already cyber- saturated brain does NOT need! I’ve always erased my browser cache every time I log off. If it were a button to choose the suggestions, that would be fine, though I would rarely if ever use it.
