I suppose you know about http://www.google.com/ncr ? It works some of the time.

Some of the time it doesn't, e.g. now when Google has custom logos I'll get a search term in Dutch (I'm in The Netherlands) when I click on it, even though I'm using google.com in English when doing so.



Yes, I know about about /ncr but its hard/impossible to set that on a mobile device

Also, it only works sometimes.


As yet another aside, has anyone else noticed how it is pretty much impossible to set SafeSearch to off without being logged in?

Trying to set the cookie just does not seem to stick


If you want, you can set "&safe=on" or "&safe=off" at the end of the url.
