Hi.
just thought it would be cool if we could do /google and then are search string in the qn box instead of having to do it the way we do now.
BEN.

that to me sounds like a really good suggestion for a qn command. Especially if it could bring up your results in either a separate window, or new tab within IE7.

I wanted to, but it's against's Google's terms of service. I even Email ed them and asked for permission and got shot down.

Meh, is that google feature bound to your adsence account j?
If it is, fair enough, but if it isn't, well... i really don't see how they can tell if you do it or not. I have emailed them before about sites that i'm annoyed with that say to click the adds and they haven't done anything about it, but i guess they get paid. shame.

Ya, you're correct, it's because of Adsense.
