It's an ever-continuing debate: what is better, a graphical user interface, or a command-line interface?

However, a CLI has a much steeper learning curve than a GUI. Google has always had a certain CLI-quality to it, and Stefan Grothkopp decided to take this a few steps further: say hello to Goosh.
