I link to google all the time (e-mails, web pages etc), one of the annoying things is that the URL is getting longer and longer…

This is what I mean: Your friends looking for foobar, you know there’s loads on google, so you search for foorbar, you then forward the link which looks like this….
http://www.google.co.uk/search?sourceid=navclient-ff&ie=UTF-8&rls=GGGL,GGGL:2005-09,GGGL:en&q=foobar
nice… NOT ! (Look, it doesn’t even fit on the page properly !)
So here’s the same thing but shorter…
http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=foobar
aah much nicer

I guess this post is mainly for me to remember, but hopefully it’ll brighten up someone else’s day to !
