Brion,

Apparently the issue is more psychological. It looks like the main activity is the article. But the change is recent and possibly not as big an issue. Worth testing.

The initial view will allow the user to go to the home page or select a random article. We have gotten numerous comments about not requiring the initial content to download before a search is initiated. Of course, we could show the initial content while also showing search activated.

Since content is downloaded asynchronously, and there's no modal spinner, I don't understand this objection. You can start a search as soon as you like... right?
