Relax! Let Google Help You, New Features on the Search Page
      #442413 - Fri Nov 20 2009 03:51 AM

I 'm an experienced Searcher with 100's of Hours and 1000's of links logged

And Recently Google has been quietly rolling out new ways to Display and whittle Down Results
I don't know if I have the Full set But the Link layout varies between searches

Basically takes a second to access these links
Say you have started a Search and the results are Showing and you want to Know More about the Links without clicking on them
You can see the URL and brief Descriptive text ...Don't touch the Link yet
Don't touch the Links at the Top of the Page!
Instead Click on the "Show Options"/button link in the top left Corner of the Search results frame The Frame Slips sideways revealing a Big Menu here to experiment with
At the Foot of this list it'll have these Items Displayed(recent additions)
Quote:

All results
Visited pages
Not yet visited
› Standard view
Related searches
Wonder wheel
Timeline
› Standard results
Images from the page
Fewer shopping sites
More shopping sites
Page previews
Reset options




Those I Have Highlighted are those you will find easiest to use
Note the "Reset options" link at the Bottom if you get the Links messed up
2 Postscripts A) The "Page previews" Link expands the Page Text Link and Shows a Thumbnail view of the Webpage
2ndly The "Visited Pages" Link if it shows? Draws on all the Archived Pages you have Visited If you have the Google Web History Program Active (Need a Google account for this) www.google.com/history Tip: Limit it to Searches only and Don't download the Google Toolbar, make a Favourite out of the Link instead
