Interesting, considering, most people still haven't found out that you don't have to click the "Search" button for the query to execute.


Really? I didn't realize most people were that ignorant. I've always typed then hit enter and everyone I know does as well.

Anyway....


Many people also click the "go" button after typing a URL into the address bar of a browser.


I didn't even realize any browsers still had the go button. That's one 'feature' that has never existed in safari. Here's a screenshot of safari 1.2, circa 2003:

I only use that button when I copy/paste a URL using the mouse.


Chrome's address bar provides the insanely awesome right-click -> "Paste and go" option.


Maybe this will educate them?
