Hey,
I've been using conkeror for some time now and I really enjoy
conkeror's support for mouseless browsing. In google search mode
Conkeror allows you to use 1-9 to select a link in your google search
results. However, when I want to look at a second page of search
results, I reach the mouse to do that (since the follow
command in the google search mode only shows numbers to your search
results). But that doesn't seem very efficient. So, what I'm wondering
if any of you know how I can select another page of search results
without having to reach the mouse (while in the google search mode).
I've looked at Conkeror's website about the google search mode but I
couldn't find any info about that there. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Yup, have this line in your rc:
define_key(content_buffer_normal_keymap, "O", "follow", $browser_object = browser_object_relationship_next);
Substitute "O" with whichever key you like.

That works beautifully. That will make my life much better
I've also noticed that if you change "next" for "previous" you can
also see previous pages.
Another related question: after you do a google search and you want to
change your previous query (e.g., add a word to your previous search), do you know of a
way of doing that without using the mouse? (again, f here has a
similar problem in the google search mode).

Well, I don't know of a good way to do this, but I use a "google" webjump, which makes the job really easy. I suggest you to join the IRC on #conkeror at FreeNode and ask the guys there (retroj is the main dev behind Conkeror), someone may know the way to do it.
Cheers!

Joining the IRC sounds a good plan. I should do that.
In fact the google webjump makes it easier (even though it doesn't allow to go back to our previous search). But I'm really happy with the ability of navigating different page of search results from the keyboard with one key stroke. Conkeror rocks!
Thanks a lot archman-cro for your help.

Actually, with google webjump Conkeror has support for that: simply
use M-p to go back to your last search. You can then modify your last
query the way you want (e.g., add a word). No rodent required
