The search box is very important. It's just that the backend code that does the search needs some fixing. As I tried to explain in [A], there are many things that could be accessed quickly from the search box. People don't navigate for content nowadays, they search for it. If not, everybody would be having www.dmoz.org as start page instead of www.google.com - and even dmoz.org has a search box for that matter ;) In my opinion, I really want to have a good search box. What needs to be fixed (and should be fixed!) are the results. Having good search results and bringing people where they want in just one search makes a good user experience :) Thomas [A] http://lists.maemo.org/pipermail/maemo-community/2008-October/001116.html _______________________________________________ maemo-community mailing list [email protected] https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-community
