Can we have an option to turn that off for donors, PLEASE?! Pretty Please with sugar on top?

Or at least put it in the Search Options where it belongs...

3. What don't you like about it?
Edited on Wed Mar-12-08 05:40 PM by sammythecat
Seems like it would be useful although I don't like that is reuses the same window.

For years I've had a Google link in the Quick Launch bar and I use it constantly. I also like that it opens in a new tab, I can drill down all I want and still get right back to where I was. Very easy, convenient, and useful.

I think it works better than launching a search from the same page.

4. I would like to be able to go to regular search without having to go through google search.
Edited on Wed Mar-12-08 05:42 PM by uppityperson
I agree, putting it an as an option in search would be good. I like to be able to search a particular forum, or time, or by author and would prefer to not have to go through the google search page first.

Edited to add that I don't mind it up on the top right, but would like it to NOT be the first page to go through to get to search.
