What I want, ideally, is exactly a page of organic results that fulfills my search query with perfect relevance.
Ideally, in the perfect world, I don't need the navigation, page 2, or even a place to refine my search. Ideally, I don't need any of that.
If we're talking about what I want, that's it.
- foxylad 14y agoSurely the ideal would be a single result with exactly the information you need. But because the search query is seldom perfect, it's good to have several results - and by extension, some paid results too.
- saalweachter 14y agoIn a perfect world, you don't even want page 1 -- why show ten results when you really only want one? And behold, that perfect world exists now: "I'm Feeling Lucky".
- waterlesscloud 14y agoYou joke, but yes, that's exactly what I want. Why would I not want exactly what I'm looking for delivered directly to me? Also, "I'm Feeling Lucky" isn't an option for me, not in the version of Chrome I have anyway. Even if I explicitly load the www.google.com which shows the feeling lucky button, as soon as I type 1 letter in the box the screen changes to an interactive search, which no longer has the lucky button.
- saalweachter 14y agoYou can disable Instant Search by going to http://www.google.com/preferences http://www.google.com/preferences and selecting "Never show Instant results.". Or, you could set "I'm Feeling Lucky" to be Chrome's default search: http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!msg/chrome/pDpfTIoSaaA/NW_itYohOJEJ http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!msg/chrome/pDpfTIoSa... . Basically, you add "btnl=I%27m+Feeling+Lucky" to the Google search URL.
