Administrator DKT27 Posted November 26, 2009 Administrator Share Posted November 26, 2009 New Google search UI brings color, search optionsGoogle's new search interface is being tested among small groups of users.http://i47.tinypic.com/2gwgsuo.png" />Google's new search results page brings more search options to the fore amid brighter colors that nod at recent changes made by its rivals.Small groups of Google searchers over the past week or so have seen the new design as the company tests the new user interface, but not everybody was able to gain access to the interface. On Wednesday, Gizmodo published some tips on how to force Google into serving the new pages, and therefore we can bring you some screen shots of the new look and feel for Google search.<img src=" The first thing you'll probably notice is the left-hand rail, which has Google's search options feature presented in full color and in permanent position: previously, you had to toggle the search options feature at the top of the search results page, and the links were presented in Google's classic spartan blue. The search bar at the top of the page also has a big blue "Search" button in place of the gray button that used to occupy that space. Marissa Mayer, vice president of search products and user experience at Google, told Search Engine Land last week that the new pages are designed to eliminate inconsistencies in how Google presented search results after it added several new elements to the page. But it also mimics what Yahoo and Microsoft have been doing with their search results pages, focusing on presentation and new ways to sort results. Let us know what you think of the new search user interface. Fair warning: the procedure described by Gizmodo caused a few temporary issues for some CNET folks that cleared up upon a few refreshes. Google will be testing the new pages for several weeks before deciding what will make the final cut for all searchers.Source - CNET Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manpe Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 No no... one of the things I like about google's search is that it has maintained the same UI with occasional modifications/improvements. It's so simple and easy... but maybe change is good, I don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bizarre™ Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Google should use javascript when toggling advanced search or preferences.It will be much easier that way ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
