It's an ever-continuing debate: what is better, a graphical user interface, or a command-line interface? Graphical user interfaces may be easier to learn, but complicated operations may require a lot more user input than with a command line interface, which can perform several complicated operations by using a short sequence of words and characters. 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.

I'm thinking of a desktop applet for the N8*0 tablet. I'm pretty sure one of the existing applets can be config our outright modified to display this url instead of it's default one.
The hyperlinked output means I can pop open child browsers easily but as mentioned, the best use is instant access to whatever crazy stuff the write in behind the search interface. I may actually learn the translation, conversion and other "search terms" functions beyond searching.
