You think you are fast enough. Try beating Google Instant.

Google today announced a new feature which they call “Google Instant” & it focuses on giving search results even before a user has finished typing the search query. So even before a user types a query & hits enter he/she will be able to see search results on the search page & it will help them narrow their search.

Users now looking at the suggested results can adapt their search & find exactly what they are looking for much faster. But to me it seems like a natural extension of the “search suggest drop down list” feature provided by Google way back on its search engine. What Google now doing is that it is fetching the search results for the top items in its search suggest drop down list & showing it upfront.

Having said that, we can no way steal the credit from Google of making search faster & more efficient.

Google claims that with this new feature users can save 2-5 seconds on every search.




Google Instant is not available on mobiles right now but Google is planning to release it soon on mobiles as well. And mobile space is the place where this neat feature can do wonders. It’s always tiring to type long search queries on mobile & with this feature it will be damn easy to search on mobiles.
