Google Suggest

This has been doing the "blog rounds" today, and I thought I'd be exciting and different by mentioning it too.

Google have implemented a sort of "autocomplete" feature. Check it out at http://www.google.com/webhp?complete=1.

Trite comments aside, I like this functionality. The calls are implemented in javascript (http://www.google.com/ac.js) and basically appear to revolve around using a hidden frame to encapsulate calls back to the server as you type.

  • Clever chaps at google.

    Although I caught this off the Reg first, you were second to mention it in my blogosphere.
