Google has started beta testing a "Related Searches" feature -- like what has been on AV for years and years. This is one area where Google has lagged behind.

Funny how the Related Searches encroches onto the Sponsored Links. And a Google results page without the input field?

indeed -- I hadn't noticed that.

In anycase a Google employee verified their tests so I don't think the screenshot is doctored -- more likely is Google is still working on the HTML template for the result pages that incorporate the listings.

It's good to know I'm two quasi-degrees of separation from a Google employee in the know :cool:

Probably he's using a LARGER font setting in IE ... which usually throws the design off :rolleyes::p
