[IxDA Discuss] Usability/design problem - Users type "google" in

There are a few key differences:
- The search portal gets traffic
- They get to advertise to you
- They know what sites you're going to

These are all good reasons for the search portal to support this
behavior as much as possible.  If, for instance, you can simply hit
"enter" to go to the first result (which will hopefully be the
correct one), there is no longer any mouse interaction.

Personally, however, I don't want google or yahoo to know every
single site I've ever been to - with that info they can basically
know almost everything there is to know about a person.
