Google recently changed their look and feel of how search results are displayed, something that you may be noticing very soon.
You'll notice there are search tools on the left hand side, adding a visual touch to Web, News, Images, Blogs and Book search. Universal Search, the Search Options panel and Google Squared are now included on the left hand panel. I think the design is an improvement, and I really appreciate that Google is constantly improving the way we search online. I think the search experience through Google can only get better! What do you think?
