Today, I've noticed a few new changes ( I think, or I've missed it all this time ) to search result pages on Google. I haven't seen any announcements on Google's blog yet..

Basically, the search result page looks like this below :




Note: This screenshot was reduced in width/height.

Have a look for yourself to view more details on the result pages on Google,

So, what I really want to know is, will this help you, as a searcher, on finding more relevant content to your searches? Share your opinions in this thread.

What are we looking at? because that image is a bit small to actually tell.

I've added another one,

Basically, there's an arrow to preview the web page before clicking to visit the page.

Ah right, that's been there a few days for me it's simply an adjustment to the page preview they have been showing when you hovered the mouse over the results, which was very annoying.
At least now you have to show the preview deliberately rather than accidentally.

Well, I'm glad they made the changes.. I remembered how it was in the past, although I somehow managed to block it out.. ( the left side of a page always got my attention ) Now that I'm seeing the arrow for the first time, I hovered over it and there it was. So, now I'm going to use it before clicking a result at Google.com, to avoid SPAM, like what I showed you with the search phrase for a song sometime ago.. ( sadly, it still appears on the first five results for the keywords on Google )

I've added another one, Learning...

Sometimes you don't get the perfect results with the low amount of keyword, you will later get used to it.
