Do we really need every single one of these Instant Search copy cats to be posted to Hacker News? A few lines of JavaScript to submit a form for you after you type a few letters is not impressive at all.
Submit something awesome and I'll upvote your technical feats instead.

I did a few searches... land, cobra, corn... and really didn't get many results that matched those words. Is that just how people are tagging them w/in Flickr?
The default order is date-posted-desc I should try other parameters like interestingness-desc, interestingness-asc, and relevance.
I don't think your search is working correctly. Google's 'instant' shows its prediction's results. Yours shows the results of the exact characters already entered. Yours only shows the prediction if you hit 'enter' and let it auto-complete.
Yes you are right, I will try that
I can see that you're providing a prediction, and it was actually spot on accurate for my search term very early on ("golden retriever"). How do I actually have it use that term?
I tried that search and when I hit 'enter', it filled the rest in and did the search
The appeal of instant search is completely lost on something like this, where a bunch of heavy pictures have to be constantly reloaded.
It is fast on my fiber optic connection.
Errrm... I searched for "dog" and got pictures of women, then searched for "cat" and got pics of cars. Not sure whats up there!
Can you send me an email? rob@3e-lab.com
Im trying to build an instant search for a big online retailer.
Now working for me, no instant updates and pressing enter on search query does nothing. Firefox 3.6.9
I just fixed it, I removed a console.log line that was breaking firefox. Enter will only apply the google suggest query on your search.
Thank you
Works now. I see you limited the amount of search results. No pagination?
