'I'm Feeling Lucky' starts to gain traction at bookofjoe
Twice in the past couple weeks I've clicked the "I'm Feeling Lucky" button on Google's search page and each time the result I wanted turned up, ready to use without clicking again to get there.
Cool.
I'm gonna be doing this more often.
Funny, I'd never before used the "Lucky" function, figuring it's always better to have a bunch of choices.
Perhaps the future of search is in the direction of returning the one best result as opposed to forcing you to search within results.
I like it.

This is a funny trick-
1. go to google.com home page http://google.com
2. type "Me in 10 Years"
3. Click the "I'm Feeling Lucky" button

Funny, I thought the "Joe" you typed in was you!

If you use firefox, you can just type your query into the URL and get the I'm Feeling Lucky result...I've been doing it for years...
