Comment on Google Instant Proves Google's Design Process is Brokenparent

The ironic thing though is that Google feels slower with instant search. I feel like the experience I have is this now:

I'm tying in the search box and I see a whole bunch of results flying below. But by the time I get to the end of my text, I look down and there are no results, and Google is telling me to hit ENTER. I feel like I'm literally wasting seconds because I had an expectation of results, but instead got nothing instantly.

The UI is probably great for people who are hunt and peck typists. But I think most people will find it to hinder more than help.
