It's pretty awesome! The one thing I dislike is that the video plays right away.

Kudos to Goggle on the job offer.

Wow.

I need to redesign Yahoo! to the way it should be and put it up on a server, and see if I can get a job offer, too. 😀 Would probably get sued... just the reason I love Google, even if it is taking over the world. I, for one, would gladly accept Google as a global political leader...

No Luke not the darkside....

Props to him for having a bit of common sense and for thinking of it first. It'll get you far in America.

A bit late on the news...

In any case, congrats for the dude on getting the job.

I personally HATE that instant search feature... it went off in about 10 seconds.

Great idea, but the video's playing instantly needs revised. I tried typing in "J.." for John Denver, but Justin Bieber started playing instantly.

That alone is enough to blacklist the site.

I hate instant too.

Makes me wish i would have thought of this first. Major congrats to this guy.

WOW. I agree with whoever said they wish it didn't play the video right away, but that is incredible! I love it! I must say I am a fan of this new instant searching. However I don't use it that much because I use chrome and the google search built into the address bar far more than google.com

only thing i hate about instant search is that it doesn't save the history of searched keywords.
if you are doing an instant search session, changed the keywords many times... you can't go back to previously searched keywords.

Just use Flashblock. I can queue up half a dozen video selections and watch them when I feel like it. I even keep several saved in my tabs so I can go back to them later.

Just about as anoying and useless as Google Instant search.

He stole an idea and got a job offer? C'mon what does it take to code a few lines using Youtube's already-present API and search suggsetions!

 

[budmonk]

I love it

 

[Pyroflea]

Very cool! That's great of Google to offer him a job.

So...you didn't get a job offer?

 

[eddieroolz]

Very cool idea.

 

[megamanx00]

Wish I would have thought of it. I keep putting off looking at APIs I need to stop being lazy about it 😀
