Google Search

By Kaspersky_ on Jul 31, 2008

Script that starts a google search with specified criteria.

import urllib

class main(object):
    def addExtension(self):
        search_criteria = raw_input("Insert Google search here: ")
        print \
        print "Searching..."
        webPage = urllib.FancyURLopener({})
        readWeb = webPage.open("http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q="+search_criteria+"&btnG=Search")

    def runIt(self):
        self.addExtension()

M = main()
M.runIt()

Sweet, I made the results less ugly and it works fine.

@AnaBotNowYourGone I'm pretty sure it would call it about the same... Unless we go into milisecond crap, which is uneeded for a simple (maybe pointless? IDK) script like this.

I like this. :) But the one PATX said is shorter. But I don't know if I would call it faster.

I have a better shorter and faster version...

import webbrowser

google = raw_input('Google search:')
webbrowser.open_new_tab('http://www.google.com/search?btnG=1&q=%s' % google)
