Google's stupid page-turning format
Sep 24th, 2016 at 8:40pm
 
They invite you to check out something .. ie 'Where are they today?' - and then you find you have to click a NEXT > button to see the next page .. which loads slowly and has to be scrolled .. and NEXT again in a series that may run to 20 pages or so.

You used to only have to scroll down the page.

Needless to say I don't bother now.

How often do you use google. It has been the way it is for a very long time.

providing it by default into 20 per page allows you to refine your search without downloading a huge page which takes time.

I am not sure you just want to scroll down forever.

I don't have a google account but you may want to see if having one allows you to customize how the page is presented for you.

It works fine the way it is.

My Google was looking pretty much the same as it always has, and I use it often.  However, noticed that they have changed it to this now ....NO WAY are they getting my phone number or email addy.  ROFLMAO

Ahem!  That's Firefox and just ignore it.  They won't press.
