Check out Google’s latest ideas – Google Experimental search
Google is always experimenting with new features aimed at improving the search experience. Take them for a spin, and let us know what you think.
Timeline and map views
See results on a timeline or map. With the timeline and map views, Google’s technology extracts key dates and locations from select search results so you can view the information in a different dimension.
Timeline and map views work best for searches related to people, companies, events and places.
Keyboard shortcuts
Navigate search results quickly and easily, minimizing use of your mouse. Current keyboard shortcuts include:
| Key | Action |
| J | Selects the next result. |
| K | Selects the previous result. |
| O | Opens the selected result. |
| <Enter> | Opens the selected result. |
| / | Puts the cursor in the search box. |
| <Esc> | Removes the cursor from the search box. |
Left-hand search navigation
Search deeper in a particular type of content—patents, products or news, for example. Google searches across all kinds of content, then ranks results by relevance.
If you want to see additional results of a particular content type, just click a link in the left-hand search navigation.
You can also refine your results by clicking on related search terms.
Right-hand contextual search navigation
Similar to the left-hand search navigation, right-hand contextual search navigation allows you to search deeper in a particular type of content or to search related terms—but from the right side of the page.
