Predictive search on Google is here

Not ready for the UK just yet (our Google guy tells us), but the predictive search function which has been knocking about for a few years under the title of Google Suggest is finally up and running on Google.com.

In simple terms, as a user enters a series of keywords into the main search box, suggestions and the number of results are included underneath.

NB: Google toolbar has had the feature for a while, minus the result count.

Analysis and more on SearchEngineLand.

Sorry don't know my URL as I am at work at the moment. How can I turn this function on and off as my new computer at home using Vista seems not to want to be predictive.

Many thanks
