Last month, Google began beta testing instant search previews -- a la Bing or Ask. The feature, now dubbed Instant Previews, shows you a preview of what the search result looks like. Today, Google has announced that previews have been officially turned on and are now rolling out across the globe.
Initial impressions of the feature were mixed here at Download Squad, with many users preferring Bing's approach. Bing, of course, offers more text from pages -- which is often a bit more useful than a downscaled image of the entire page's content.
If -- like me -- you're not seeing the preview option in your Google results just yet, there's a demo video after the break so you can see what's coming.Instant Previews now available on Google search results originally appeared on Download Squad on Tue, 09 Nov 2010 10:30:00 EST.
