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!”
