Google Suggest Becoming A Default Feature?
I reported at the Search Engine Roundtable about how I spotted a WebmasterWorld thread that has three members noticing Google Suggest like features on Google.com.
Basically, when these users go to Google.com and begin typing in a query, Google begins to offer search suggestions. Google has implemented this feature as a default on other non-U.S. based search engine home pages but never as the default at Google.com. Both Yahoo and Ask.com offer search suggestions as you type, Yahoo's feature is known as Search Assist.
It would not surprise me to hear that Google is testing this on some users, and it honestly wouldn't surprise me if this became a default feature at Google.com.
