Secure searches

Saw this while browsing the web today.. Secure Google searches..

Basically to perform a secure search (over SSL), use https://encrypted.google.com.

This prevents people (such as the people who run the network you're using, such as your employer, or someone sniffing around on your network) from being able to see what words you're searching on (and the search results pages that Google suggests.)

There's also a Google Chrome extension for this.
