More Reports of Google Suggest Feature as Default on Google.com

A few weeks ago we reported that Google was testing search suggestions as the default option when searching at Google.com. It appears that more people are noticing this new Google Suggest test.

A new WebmasterWorld has reports from a couple members who have seen this behavior from Google recently.

A senior member said:

Today, for the first time, searching on google.com I noted that Google "suggests" me the most requested phrases.

I thought I clicked the wrong bookmark ( I have a boomark for googe.com and another one for Google suggest), but in fact the "suggestions" seem the default choice...

It can be that this user went to Google Experimental and clicked on the "Join experiment" button under "Keyword suggestions."

Keyword Suggestions Google Experiment

However, this searcher said he did not join that experiment.
