And if you want to search with advertising sprayed at you and a complete removal of where you went, use "Scroogle".

As a result of Big Google* pre-defining my usability preferences with its Instant Search option turned on (i.e. you need to opt out instead of opt in), I changed over this morning to Bing. (My settings nuke cookies when I close my browser, so their session- specific opt-out option doesn't work for me.)

* i.e. Big Google at google.com/ncr and not Little Google at google.com.au

If anyone else has their search page set to Big Google and remembers at the time, when and if Google removes this from their main page, would someone please let me know and I might then swap back, depending on how good a friendship I develop with Bing in the meantime.

Anyone wants to play with the Instant Search feature, go to:

google.com/ncr

... have fun!

Cheers,
Neil.
