I go to www.google.ca and don't get ugly images near as often as google.com but it is still pretty bad. However, I don't spend time looking at images... I don't even look at my screen.

To do a google search I do the following:
Think hey, I need to do a search
Press Alt+d
type google
press Ctrl+Return
type keywords
press Return

Then I finally look at my screen. Using keyboard shortcuts has minimized the amount of time I actually spend looking at retarded displays.

I agree, keyboard shortcuts make life nicer. On the firefox: F6, then tab, (then (if not default google or your choice) CTRL+Arrows choose search engine), then keywords, then return.

On Chrome:

Ctrl+T (new tab)
Type search criteria
Enter
