1. A method for efficiently accessing search results in response to input of text characters into a computing device, comprising the steps of: (a) enabling a user to input text characters indicative of a search topic for which search results are desired; (b) in response to the text characters that are input, populating a display with at least one of a list of proposed search strategies and a list of proposed quick matches, each list with which the display is populated being dynamically updated as successive text characters are input, so that the list of proposed search strategies and the list of proposed quick matches change to correspond to the text characters that have been input, key words included in each list beginning with said text characters; (c) if at least said one of the list of proposed search strategies and the list of proposed quick matches is displayed, enabling the user to make a selection from at least said one thereof that appears most likely to provide the search results desired; and (d) displaying search results from the selection made by the user.
