Maybe it's just me (and this is more of a general comment to start pages), I don't see the need for a search bar in start pages, I can easily (cmd/ctrl+k) go to the search bar in the browser and it's not that much harder.

As for your site, bmaier's suggestion is good, but if you are concerned about speed maybe you can do some ajax request on some local cached copy of the latest headlines?

I'm with you: I do the same thing(ctrl+k) and rarely if ever use the search bar. But a surprising number of people still do.

The AJAX suggestion is good. One of our requirements though is minimal effort on our part(we've got a real startup as our primary job).
