I'm finding that Google less useful for finding anything these days. The
first Google page is full of hits for other web sites doing searches of
multiple search engines and coming up with items from companies at twice
the recommended retail price. Alternatively, hundreds of reviews for the
things you want to buy but with very few hits for anyone selling them.

See if Bilitong do a replacement. Certainly very good for phone batteries

I use them and have bought camera batteries and chargers from them.

For me, Google seems to have become almost unusable. There now seems to
be no way of turning off the once-optional 'predictive text' function
(well, you can try, but it has no effect). As a result, from the first
letter you type in, it gets excited and shoots off searching for what IT
thinks you might be looking for.

After finding (literally) millions of hits on something you're not
looking for, it then runs out of puff, seizes up, and displays an
'unresponsive script' message.

Eventually, it usually settles down, allows you to complete your typing,
and finally condescends to search for what you REALLY want.

On my system (W7 pro using Chrome), the Amazon link was the fourth hit
on searching "18287", hardly a sophisticated search expression. And two
of the higher ones were eBay.

For a lot of experienced search engine users, it's more like "Google

I get the reverse effect. Most of what I am searching for shows up below
the search box as I am typing it in for me to select the one I want from.

When it doesn't, like say with the CDC-713 vdu I was looking for the
details for this morning, there were no hits on the first page because
that turns out to be a color code for something or other, but there
were useful hits on the next page.

The only thing I ever have much trouble with is when there
is no unique keyword that can be used with other qualifiers.
Like say some detail about MS Access forms where the word
access isnt unique at all.

I also had some difficulty with entering that pseudo number to
enable caller ID display on a voip capable phone, to see exactly
what that code was supposed to do, but don't get that often.

Yes, you can get some of those with some consumer items.

and coming up with items from companies

I don't get much of that at all.

I like Google, but I do have the others - none of which seems to suffer
from Googol's obsession with predictive searching.

Turn off javascript. Properly written sites don't need it and as your
machine isn't labouring away running the script(s) are far more
responsive and quite often easier to use. Easier to use as content
isn't hidden behind float over/requires a click to view a javascript
"user experience enhancing feature".

The increasing use of HTML5 is also reducing the amount of plugins or
scripts and the "dynamic" rendering between "desktop" and "mobile"
helps as well. Sites tend to fall back to the simple "mobile" view if
they don't recognise the browser.

The predictive searching on that and other sites is javascript based so
if you have a browser for basic work with javascript disabled then you
avoid many annoying intrusions.

Here I have Opera for basic work with javascript (and certain other
fussy stuff) turned off and I use firefox for other stuff that requires
it enabled.

I deliberately installed an older version of Firefox (v21.0) as it gives
you greater control of what runs in your browser (it can disable
javascript easily if you so choose (later versions can't) and its
control of cookies is nicer, I also have flash normally off and enable
it only when I want to view something like youtube).
