New Google Instant Previews - Visual Preview of Your Search Results
After launch of Google instant search now Google has introduced another feature in the search engine world called Google Instant Previews. With Google Instant you get results as fast as you type, but your search doesn’t stop there. Once you get results back, you choose a site to visit based on the information in each result—like the title, a snippet of text and the URL.
Google is making a leap to image-based snapshots—a new kind of visual search result called “Instant Previews” which makes it even faster to choose the right result.
Instant Previews provides a graphic overview of a search result and highlights the most relevant sections, making finding the right page as quick and easy as flipping through a magazine. To use it, click once on the magnifying glass next to the title of any search result and a visual overview of the page will appear on the right. From there, hover your cursor over any other result to see a preview.
