Add-on summary
Remember when search results provided "ten blue links" that sent you to the right place, rather than having to wade through a plethora of sponsored results and info boxes first? ? We do, too. So we turned back the clock.
Simple Search doesn’t modify the search page, it just adds a new view on top, showing just those “traditional” search results provided by the search engine. If you’d rather see the other results, too, you can easily close the window.
This extension is compatible with Bing and Google search engines.
