Google instant now in india.
Do you like this story?
Web search giant Google has made its newest real-time search innovation - Google Instant available for the Indian domain. New Google Instant search stands up to its name and literally makes every other search engine look obsolete. Last month, Google Instant was launched on Google.com domain. You can check out the Google Instant by visiting Google India search - www.google.co.in. Do note that Google Instant is only available on Google Chrome web browser and we don't know how long will Google take to bring Instant for other browsers as well.
The freshly launched Google Instant is the latest search innovation added to Google Search engine that is destined to make the search engine smarter and humans lazier. Google Instant combines three core features - dynamic results, auto-complete predictions and scroll-to-search functionality. This new interface combined with infrastructure enhancement claims to save up to 5 seconds on a typical search query.
In recent times, almost every browser comes with a search engine box next to the address bar or web search incorporated in the address bar itself. People who visit Google.co.in regularly will easily notice this change. Nevertheless, several users might even get surprised assuming something is wrong with their web browser or computer.
Google stated that after enabling Google Instant, people had adjusted to the new search experience and looked at their search queries without hitting the enter key.
Though this new search experience is meant to make users happy, many aren't pleased with the new Google Instant. Hackers took up the challenging task to find out and compiled a lengthy list of blacklisted keywords to which Google Instant doesn't respond.
Google Instant remains to be Google Search home page experience and isn't included in the Google Chrome's Omnibox (Address bar that incorporates search).
Since the launch, Google has extended Instant to Google Books, videos, blogs and updates, and has launched keyboard shortcuts to navigate through the search results.
Google Instant currently works on the Google homepage and results page, and not in browser search boxes, the Google toolbar, and the Chrome Omnibox
Benefits
Faster Searches: By predicting your search and showing results before you finish typing, Google Instant can save 2-5 seconds per search.
Smarter Predictions: Even when you don’t know exactly what you’re looking for, predictions help guide your search. The top prediction is shown in grey text directly in the search box, so you can stop typing as soon as you see what you need.
Instant Results: Start typing and results appear right before your eyes. Until now, you had to type a full search term, hit return, and hope for the right results. Now results appear instantly as you type, helping you see where you’re headed, every step of the way.
Did you know:
- Before Google Instant, the typical searcher took more than 9 seconds to enter a search term, and we saw many examples of searches that took 30-90 seconds to type.
- Using Google Instant can save 2-5 seconds per search.
- If everyone uses Google Instant globally, we estimate this will save more than 3.5 billion seconds a day. That’s 11 hours saved every second.
- 15 new technologies contribute to Google Instant functionality.
