Well the original post was about the results pages. These urls are the redirects when you click on one of the results. This seems like a bug in Safari though and not an issue with Google's URLs although I admit they are not too pretty. An alternative to trying every link would be to try a different browser.

It's entirely due to Google's client-side redirects. Which are stupid and annoying and Google should fix them. But since Google doesn't care, the Detox extension works nicely. Though it's always somewhat sad when you have to resort to browser extensions to work around web programmers' stupidity. EDIT: Also, I just tried your suggestion of a different browser, and tried Google's own browser. The stupid titleless redirection URLs are still there, cluttering up your history. So that doesn't really fix it.
