#2I don't know if it will bring on ruin, but I certainly found the old image search much more friendly and usable. Both this and page preview seems like "another useless feature that someone thinks improves the experience when it does nothing but show off the fact that someone can code JavaScript or some other display manipulation language." Clean and fast wins the day with me ... Duck Duck Go?

Has Dvorak ever been right about anything? (And no, he doesn't get credit for the keyboard layout, that was a different guy.)
Re: Google's Inevitable Ruin Begins
#8John Dvorak seems to have an unlimited supply of complaints, and rarely anything constructive to say.
Wikipedia suggests he's never built anything of his own. Always a bridesmaid, never a bride. Perhaps that's part of it?

#9I think Google deserves the benefit of the doubt, for now.

this. the "improved" image search is terrible. very finicky and even hard to use--hardly simple.
re: ddg. regular user, but as others have pointed out already the ajax load for results is annoying (because it's slow and flashy/jerky).
