Just seen on /. one of the coolest websites for those who feel overloaded with today's flashy GUI's

http://goosh.org

It's the first unofficial GCLI (Google Command Line Interface) :D

Is there much point to it? I don't really get it, I like flashy GUIs!

I don't see the point either to be honest, took 8s to load (4Mb connection here, so not particularly slow) whereas Google took 0.78s, so looks like the flashy interface wins.

It's kinda cool ;)

Interesting to have a change in interface, but again, no point in going backwards.

Good for those types of people that live in soviet russia and use archaic command lines instead of ergonomic GUIs because they can...

Awesome, provided much amusement this afternoon

Pretty cool.

Also, google has a new language

The language of the sweedish chef in sesame street :p

It's quicker for me.

A little immaturity on my part shows that it doesn't filter search results.

:o

It is fairly quick, as is Google. Could come in handy sometimes though and it's quite fun - I just had a little play.

Tsk, youth of today. The Swedish Chef was in the muppets!

And that feature has been there for a while, I think you can do Klingon as well as a few others.

*edit* Elmur Fudd is in there too

I concur.

....although, apparently I'm only allowed to concur if it has more than 10 characters. Darn limit :p
