[gui-talk] google has changed and searches are now difficult

Tue Dec 16 01:24:00 UTC 2008

Thank you. It doesn't matter that it's a Google result. Whoever is having 
problems with this business of not being able to go backward in the browser, 
using Backspace if that's what they're accustomed to doing, is not anything 
to do with having trouble with Google. The link you happen to click on 
(press enter on) in a Google results list is simply an active Web link. It 
isn't a function of Foogle. Maybe this is helpful to say? I hope so.

You can backspace out of the page you entered onto, like a Google result,
and be in the list of results again.  Pam.
