<sarcasm>This is great news! Now all I have to do is not update my browser any more and I won't have to deal with the mess of google, facebook etc. changing their UI every so often and making me search for the new locations of the links to the features I use frequently.</sarcasm>

More seriously, I have set my "google" bookmark to google.com/webhp?complete=0&hl=en because I LIKE the old style better and don't want instant/autocomplete.
