Google has come up with some new features to attract the regular user to the internet.
The mega search engine has devised an experimental search page and added some new features to its “alternative views” experiment from last May.
Map view is one feature that according to the official Google blog, solves the problem of looking through many sites for information by “plotting some of the key locations contained in your web results onto a map“, according to Andrew Hogue of Google.
Timeline view is another feature that looks up dates on the internet much like Map View looks up locations along with biographical information generated from a user’s search results.
Mr Hogue explained the control panel on the right side of the page: “Usually we show some text from the page that includes a few of the words you searched for.
“Now you can instead reveal text containing dates, locations, measurements, or images,” he said.
