---- "Google Suggest" becomes default search box behavior

Suggest is on the home page AND in the Google Toolbar..

As for using it for an SEO "predictor"... it tells you how many results not how many people search for the term. And that's a double edge sword -- do you optimize for the kw that there are 1,000,000 results for and assume it popular or for the word that has 10,000 and try to corner the market?

On another note: Now that "widgets" are actualy virtual goods, we need a new "whatchamacallit" word to use for examples (to mean "example thing-a-ma-bobs" here at WebmasterWorld, in books, etc)..

I started typing in:

w
wi
wid
widg
widget
widgets

and what does G suggest...?

Their own brand of widgets! (..but only at #2, after "widgets for mac")...

Any suggestions for a new foo-type-widget word ?
