Google’s experimenting with new search tools

Don Day January 30th, 2008

Ars Technica has a review of a slew of new search tools that Google has put in Labs for people to pick apart.

-     “Alternate views for search results” - includes map, timeline and “more info”
-     “Keyword suggestions” - just like what you get on the Firefox toolbar
-     “Keyboard shortcuts”
-     “Left hand search navigation”
-     “Right-hand contextual search navigation”

    Interesting. Don’t know if it all will be actually useful, but interesting. I’m surprised that their left- and right-hand contextual stuff wasn’t a bit more robust, to respond to Ask’s search page.

    Heh, I like that there’s a Google AdWords ad titled, “Don’t Sign Up For Google AdWords!”
