Which more useful? Google’s links or home page?

It’s interesting how many of Google’s expanded listings have become even more useful than the home page behind the link.

For example, take these two examples. One is the Google listing for Grub & Ellis. The second is the Grub & Ellis home page you get when you click the search result link.

Wow. I couldn’t agree more. I’m not long interested in your graphics. Just get me to the stuff I’m looking for.

A serious comment from the soxer for a change. Personally, I feel Google puts stuff back into the interweb (the very useful free services). They may end up running it before long.
