>Everybody has seen Google's landing page. Function over form.

My favorite thing about google's home page is having their elaborate doodles load just as I'm about to tap on the search box, leading me to an unintended search. Function over form at its finest.

I've resorted to bookmarking an empty search results page.

I know everyone has their own workflow, but I'm still surprised anyone actually goes to Google's home page anymore what with their search bar being accessible from practically anywhere (browser address bar for example).

I don't remember the last time I actually went to the Google home page. What leads you there these days?

My default address bar search is DDG, but need to fallback to google at times, and I keep my iPhone relatively google-free (Other than google voice).

Or, indeed, anywhere in your query. "test !g query" will search Google for "test query".
