Use Google Suggest to find what you're looking for
Google Suggest is a Google feature that suggests what you're looking for before you even finish looking for it. For instance, in my image there above, I was looking for James Bond information. All I needed to do was type in "james" and I instantly got a whole slew of James Bond information, including resources I didn't even know I wanted to look at.
However, Google is definitely not the only search engine to have this feature. In fact, it's not even close to the first search engine to have this feature! Ask has had a suggestion feature in use for some time, as well as Yahoo:
Do you like these Suggest features? Do you feel like they make your Web searches easier? Personally, I find it depends on what I'm looking for, which is why I like the optional feature of...turning auto-suggest off.

I really enjoy the Google suggest. It helps me sometimes use a better a search phrase than I was going to use.
Google suggest is a great feature but sometimes it tends to deviate users mind. For example , I was searching with some peculiar keyword but google search showed me other options and I searched based on its recommendations.
