Google Labs – Experimental Search

“Google is always experimenting with new features aimed at improving the search experience.” Currently available tools as follows:

  • Timeline and map views: “See results on a timeline or map. With the timeline and map views, Google’s technology extracts key dates and locations from select search results so you can view the information in a different dimension.”
  • Keyboard shortcuts: “Navigate search results quickly and easily, minimizing use of your mouse.”
  • Left-hand search navigation: “Search deeper in a particular type of content—patents, products or news, for example. Google searches across all kinds of content, then ranks results by relevance.”
  • Right-hand contextual search navigation: “Similar to the left-hand search navigation, right-hand contextual search navigation allows you to search deeper in a particular type of content or to search related terms—but from the right side of the page.”
