Dear Google

THANK YOU for putting a 'google instant' on/off toggle on the home search page! I've been gagging for weeks, because the instant thing is NOT instant. It was maybe a "cool" idea, but made my searches slow, cumbersome, and beyond WRONG. Really, really wrong. Instant just couldn't keep up, and I'm not that fast a typist.

Your big reward for accommodating usability over geekminded 'coolness' is that I will continue to use Google as my home base for every browser I use -- and I use Google's search engines in front of many people throughout my workday as a college educator! (Talk about your free advertising)

Of course, I also use Firefox and OpenOffice as much as I can, too.

Google gets a cookie. Have a nice weekend!
