Can I please have my old Google search back? The one that returns unpersonalized search results by default, didn't use javascript tricks in the URLs of search returns just to track clicks, and didn't have an annoying hideaway thing on the right side?
Pretty please?
- sp332 15y ago1. Go to https://www.google.com/preferences?hl=en https://www.google.com/preferences?hl=en and disable your "personalized" results. 2. Install "Google Search link fix" for FF https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/google-search-link-fix/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/google-search... or "A Little Privacy" for Chrome https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/kjhmfidomefgpbbebodnbakelpabilga https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/kjhmfidomefgpbbebo... 3. I don't have an annoying hideaway thing?
- jcurbo 15y agoAnnoying hideaway thing = site preview I believe, that pops out when you hover over the right edge of the search result. I find it incredibly annoying.
- sp332 15y agoOh right. If you wait for one to come up, and then click the "X" in the corner of the preview pane, they won't come up again unless you specifically hover over the >> button for each result. If you want something more permanent, I think this userscript http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/90394 http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/90394 or these AdBlock rules will block it, but I haven't tried them: google.com##.vspi google.com##.vspib google.com###vspb (remember to modify if you're using e.g. google.com.au)
- RexRollman 15y agoI'll have to give those a try. Thanks.
