Using Google to Search? Enjoy the Result Page Improvements!

With a little bit of a delay, via Google Blog, Google has improved its result page. Google rolled out out two new improvements to Google search. The first offers an expanded list of useful related searches and the second is the addition of longer search result descriptions — both of which help guide users more effectively to the information they need.
More and better search refinements
We’re deploying a new technology that can better understand associations and concepts related to your search, and one of its first applications lets us offer you even more useful related searches (the terms found at the bottom, and sometimes at the top, of the search results page).

Longer snippets
When you do a search on Google, each result we give you starts with a dark blue title and is followed by a few lines of text (what we call a “snippet”), which together give you an idea of what each page is about. When you enter a longer query, with more than three words, regular-length snippets may not give you enough information and context. In these situations, we now increase the number of lines in the snippet to provide more information and show more of the words you typed in the context of the page.
