Ok, I see. The thing is that the "search as you type" feature refreshes page only if there are any results - done on purpose, because otherwise the screen will be "blinking" too much. I think that in order to fix this - we'd have to redo that feature. If you hit the "search" button - you will get a blank page on higgs boson. (well not now - as we already have those keywords here).

We are going to change the way search works, hopefully in a couple of weeks you will be able to see that, it will work more like in Quora - in a dropdown. Also, the first stage of search will be run only against question titles and later tags. Current search will work as "second stage" - as full content search, there won't be a full page refresh during the time you type into the search bar.
