This change is currently available for all <a href="//google.com/">google.com</a> users in English.<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEik-H0eTc0OEIk6D_4-yr7CgnQpuE1O72jOC-IaJJobNmdnN_bm5A6qxid03ytQNF6LgjwZnujFFrMEKFESeDCTh5QcMU2IxVKXx8I3nE3FOwIXAyB-P779XxHqE4crQQLe1bkm/s1600/Screen+shot+2011-04-22+at+11.48.32+AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEik-H0eTc0OEIk6D_4-yr7CgnQpuE1O72jOC-IaJJobNmdnN_bm5A6qxid03ytQNF6LgjwZnujFFrMEKFESeDCTh5QcMU2IxVKXx8I3nE3FOwIXAyB-P779XxHqE4crQQLe1bkm/+shot+2011-04-22+at+11.48.32+AM.png" width="500" /></a></div><br /> <b>Google Toolbar 7 with Toolbar Instant</b><br /> We continued to bring the speed of <a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2010/09/search-now-faster-than-speed-of-type.html">Google Instant</a> to more places with this week’s <a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2011/04/google-toolbar-7cleaner-fresher-and.html">launch of Google Toolbar 7 for Internet Explorer 8 and 9</a>.

We also announced World IPv6 Day, which will help ensure Google can continue giving you fast, relevant search results for generations to come.<br /> <br /> <b>Better results for music videos</b><br /> People often come to Google to find music videos, and this week we improved our results so now when you’re searching for your favorite band or album, you’ll find popular clips organized in a new way. For example, search for [michael jackson] and you’ll find some of the King of Pop’s most famous videos, including clear text indicating the length of the video, the album and the year it was published. The feature scans the entire web for video content and algorithmically ranks the best sources for each song.

We also announced World IPv6 Day, which will help ensure Google can continue giving you fast, relevant search results for generations to come.<br /> <br /> <b>Better results for music videos</b><br /> People often come to Google to find music videos, and this week we improved our results so now when you’re searching for your favorite band or album, you’ll find popular clips organized in a new way. For example, search for [michael jackson] and you’ll find some of the King of Pop’s most famous videos, including clear text indicating the length of the video, the album and the year it was published. The feature scans the entire web for video content and algorithmically ranks the best sources for each song. Rather than return repetitive links, we group results for the same song together, making it easier to scan and choose the song you’re looking for. Try searching for [<a href="//www.google.com/#hl=en&q=green+day">green day</a>], [<a href="//www.google.com/#hl=en&q=maroon5">maroon 5</a>] or [<a href="//www.google.com/search?q=beyonce">beyonce</a>] (for one of the best videos of all time!).<div><br /> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2hMRd6fYeVvoX8GI_qOJsKDK0IAbQupphl74qP2OhNT13L4Wtf0ZPMDb6KYPd8Tk6LS-Z8_OtaqKKWtwiZuD5Q6GD4dQB8tTqM3WPhpgzRkL74uFD5txN_KO7SoK_ThNrX4XC/s1600/michaeljackson.png"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5562201493222670402" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2hMRd6fYeVvoX8GI_qOJsKDK0IAbQupphl74qP2OhNT13L4Wtf0ZPMDb6KYPd8Tk6LS-Z8_OtaqKKWtwiZuD5Q6GD4dQB8tTqM3WPhpgzRkL74uFD5txN_KO7SoK_ThNrX4XC/" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" /></a><br /> <span style="font-weight:bold;">Google’s left-hand panel in Arabic, Farsi and Hebrew</span><br /> This week we expanded Google’s <a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2010/05/spring-metamorphosis-googles-new-look.html">panel</a> of search tools to Arabic, Farsi and Hebrew, enabling people who read right-to-left languages to access a dynamic set of search tools.

Realtime Search has been <a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2010/08/google-realtime-search-new-home-with.html">steadily improving</a>, and this week we added a new “Top updates” section on the right-hand side of the Realtime results page, making it easy to see some of the most interesting tweets related for your search. We’ve also updated the user interface for the <a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2010/04/replay-it-google-search-across-twitter.html">replay</a> feature, making it easier to go back in time with very precise time intervals that appear as you hover your cursor over the timeline.

We use a variety of automated tools to detect common signs of hacking as quickly as possible, and if we detect any of these we add a new notice right beneath the result title line, “This site may be compromised.” In addition to protecting users, these notices will also help webmasters more quickly discover when someone is abusing their sites. You can learn more in our <a href="//www.google.com/support/websearch/bin/answer.py?answer=190597">Help Center article</a> and our <a href="http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/2010/12/new-hacked-site-notifications-in-search.html">webmaster blog post</a>.

This week we made three distinct improvements to Translate. First, we added the ability to see <a href="http://googletranslate.blogspot.com/2010/12/when-one-translation-just-isnt-enough.html">alternative translations</a>, which can help you understand the true intended meaning of the phrase, and provide another kind of feedback for us to improve our translation systems. We also added <a href="http://googletranslate.blogspot.com/2010/12/on-screen-keyboards-on-google-translate.html">virtual keyboards</a>, because it can be extremely difficult to type some of the 57 languages supported by Google Translate on a standard QWERTY keyboard. Finally, we <a href="http://googletranslate.blogspot.com/2010/12/listen-to-us-now.html">added speech synthesis</a> for three more languages and dramatically improved another 17, so you can not only see text translations, but actually hear them spoken aloud.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYyKm-SP__SUvHjNEZUFffAEBVkSt-sJbTUbt4slCjX_xO6NXPeL_VSQ5dAOI-NvWIq2sLRL2FSb3wgCaeQfi8PykgV4ExS4Fd_HgNkDGyUlufZiAq-RQvpOUhgBI9vwLEFz4s/s1600/translate.png"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5551769535783535794" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYyKm-SP__SUvHjNEZUFffAEBVkSt-sJbTUbt4slCjX_xO6NXPeL_VSQ5dAOI-NvWIq2sLRL2FSb3wgCaeQfi8PykgV4ExS4Fd_HgNkDGyUlufZiAq-RQvpOUhgBI9vwLEFz4s/s400/translate.png" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 92px;" /></a><div style="text-align: center;"><i>With alternative translations, </i><i>you can click to see different possible translations for the same word.</i></div><br /><b>This week in searches</b><br />After our special edition of the Google Beat last week for our <a href="//www.google.com/zeitgeist2010">annual Zeitgeist</a>, we’re back with the final <a href="//www.youtube.com/user/Googlebeat#p/a/u/0/Kzv2spodWsE">Google Beat</a> of the year.

Finally, for those who are watching closely, we’ve also renamed the “Updates” mode in the left-hand panel on our main search results page to “Realtime” to make our feature names more consistent.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgybNXT41VsF-GErLggYVXLjW2txJOU1x1w4CtfWlM8aH51JSnawf-hWkyKYi3MIK4kW8DNzdWv7M6Yn4oKNihg5RIzZSGeu91CStuStGa04Y3mT6_fBYPZOG4vkiRcuUa9HkkZ/s1600/updates.png"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5551769556328857426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgybNXT41VsF-GErLggYVXLjW2txJOU1x1w4CtfWlM8aH51JSnawf-hWkyKYi3MIK4kW8DNzdWv7M6Yn4oKNihg5RIzZSGeu91CStuStGa04Y3mT6_fBYPZOG4vkiRcuUa9HkkZ/s400/updates.png" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 312px; height: 400px;" /></a><div style="text-align: center;"><i>Top updates now appear on the right-hand side of the Realtime results page</i></div><br /><b>Hacked sites notifications</b><br />We've added new notifications to the results page to warn you when sites may have been compromised, spammed or defaced. We use a variety of automated tools to detect common signs of hacking as quickly as possible, and if we detect any of these we add a new notice right beneath the result title line, “This site may be compromised.” In addition to protecting users, these notices will also help webmasters more quickly discover when someone is abusing their sites. You can learn more in our <a href="//www.google.com/support/websearch/bin/answer.py?answer=190597">Help Center article</a> and our <a href="http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/2010/12/new-hacked-site-notifications-in-search.html">webmaster blog post</a>.

This week we made three distinct improvements to Translate. First, we added the ability to see <a href="http://googletranslate.blogspot.com/2010/12/when-one-translation-just-isnt-enough.html">alternative translations</a>, which can help you understand the true intended meaning of the phrase, and provide another kind of feedback for us to improve our translation systems. We also added <a href="http://googletranslate.blogspot.com/2010/12/on-screen-keyboards-on-google-translate.html">virtual keyboards</a>, because it can be extremely difficult to type some of the 57 languages supported by Google Translate on a standard QWERTY keyboard. Finally, we <a href="http://googletranslate.blogspot.com/2010/12/listen-to-us-now.html">added speech synthesis</a> for three more languages and dramatically improved another 17, so you can not only see text translations, but actually hear them spoken aloud.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYyKm-SP__SUvHjNEZUFffAEBVkSt-sJbTUbt4slCjX_xO6NXPeL_VSQ5dAOI-NvWIq2sLRL2FSb3wgCaeQfi8PykgV4ExS4Fd_HgNkDGyUlufZiAq-RQvpOUhgBI9vwLEFz4s/s1600/translate.png"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5551769535783535794" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYyKm-SP__SUvHjNEZUFffAEBVkSt-sJbTUbt4slCjX_xO6NXPeL_VSQ5dAOI-NvWIq2sLRL2FSb3wgCaeQfi8PykgV4ExS4Fd_HgNkDGyUlufZiAq-RQvpOUhgBI9vwLEFz4s/s400/translate.png" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 92px;" /></a><div style="text-align: center;"><i>With alternative translations, </i><i>you can click to see different possible translations for the same word.</i></div><br /><b>This week in searches</b><br />After our special edition of the Google Beat last week for our <a href="//www.google.com/zeitgeist2010">annual Zeitgeist</a>, we’re back with the final <a href="//www.youtube.com/user/Googlebeat#p/a/u/0/Kzv2spodWsE">Google Beat</a> of the year.

These improvements will help people find fresher images in both web and image search.<br /><br /><span class="byline-author">Posted by Johanna Wright, Director of Product Management</span></div> <span itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://plus.google.com/116899029375914044550' itemprop='url'/> </span> </noscript> </div> </div> <div class='share'> <span class='gplus-share social-wrapper' data-href='https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2010/12/this-week-in-search-121010.html'> <img alt='Share on Google+' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/branding/google_plus/2x/ic_w_post_gplus_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='twitter-custom social-wrapper' data-href='http://twitter.com/share?text=Official Google Blog:This week in search 12/10/10&url=https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2010/12/this-week-in-search-121010.html&via=google'> <img alt='Share on Twitter' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_twitter_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='fb-custom social-wrapper' data-href='https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2010/12/this-week-in-search-121010.html'> <img alt='Share on Facebook' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_facebook_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='cmt_iframe_holder' data-href='https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2010/12/this-week-in-search-121010.html' data-viewtype='FILTERED_POSTMOD'></div> <a href='https://plus.google.com/112374322230920073195' rel='author' style='display:none;'> Google </a> <div class='label-footer'> <span class='labels-caption'> Labels: </span> <span class='labels'> <a class='label' href='https://googleblog.blogspot.com/search/label/search' rel='tag'> search </a> , <a class='label' href='https://googleblog.blogspot.com/search/label/This%20Week%20in%20Search' rel='tag'> This Week in Search </a> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post' data-id='4075841045910319521' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2010/12/this-week-in-search-12310.html' itemprop='url' title='This week in search 12/3/10'> This week in search 12/3/10 </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> December 3, 2010 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> <i>This is one of a regular series of posts on search experience updates.

Whether you’re more into “Black Friday” or “Cyber Monday,” many of us increasingly turn to the Internet and search engines to find the best prices, product reviews, gift guides and recommendations. This week, we made a number of improvements that should help make it easier than ever to find gifts for friends and family (or yourself!) from reputable merchants, whether you’re out on your phone looking for a store, searching at home for an online merchant, or looking for a friend to get a recommendation.<br /><br /><b>Place Search on mobile</b><br />In October, we introduced <a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2010/10/place-search-faster-easier-way-to-find.html">Place Search</a>, which helps you find local information by organizing websites around real world places. As you’ve probably experienced, local information is particularly useful when you’re out and about and have only your phone to rely on. That’s why we’ve worked to quickly bring Place Search to your mobile phone. Now when you search for [museums new york city] on your phone, you’ll see the web result for Metropolitan Museum of Art along with comments and reviews about the place—all nicely organized in one cluster of information. If you want to call the museum or get directions, both are just one button click away.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8rwFam4ZZ3Rx4vx1Ztf5_BkQX7T1bX7iOh1YAsFSDgPfgxclCLUpA4sNjGJ3VPL686iD01CLos5MvSLYBlYWnFRcZ3Aj2yTtj3AXZ4ZZTjzS1L-P7rn8v-xot15rIu5XDPGCV/s1600/mobile+place+search.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5546594564778931346" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8rwFam4ZZ3Rx4vx1Ztf5_BkQX7T1bX7iOh1YAsFSDgPfgxclCLUpA4sNjGJ3VPL686iD01CLos5MvSLYBlYWnFRcZ3Aj2yTtj3AXZ4ZZTjzS1L-P7rn8v-xot15rIu5XDPGCV/s400/mobile+place+search.jpg" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 257px; height: 400px;" /></a><br /><b>More protection from disreputable merchants </b><br />Last Sunday, the New York Times <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2010/11/28/business/28borker.html?_r=1&pagewanted=all" rel="nofollow">reported</a> that a particular online merchant had deliberately abused customers in an attempt to increase his ranking on Google and other search engines.

This week we added new social <a href="//www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=47334">sitelinks</a> to search results, giving you more direct access to content from your friends. A social sitelink includes your friend’s name and profile photo, and it links to her content on a particular website. Social sitelinks are based on the same technology as Google Social Search; we use your <a href="//www.google.com/s2/search/social">social circle</a> to identify relevant websites and user pages.<br /><br />To see social sitelinks in action, try a search for [twitter] or [youtube]. If you’re not seeing social sitelinks, try creating a <a href="//www.google.com/profiles">Google profile</a> and adding links in your profile to other online social sites you belong to so we can build your social circle.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihAewdKzSoyW9YEJ4PXw5-EWtflRskw8Zy2bNZpake5gNpNOJ0XLJhHJVVErZWqRFGr9ut6NG__mNg8Zvqs4E76liv80sU2yqvSwZOYmGICei7Kkj52QTeHDYwytDY4txnKIvI/s1600/socialsitelinks.png"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5546594557818239730" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihAewdKzSoyW9YEJ4PXw5-EWtflRskw8Zy2bNZpake5gNpNOJ0XLJhHJVVErZWqRFGr9ut6NG__mNg8Zvqs4E76liv80sU2yqvSwZOYmGICei7Kkj52QTeHDYwytDY4txnKIvI/s400/socialsitelinks.png" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 114px;" /></a><br /><b>NBA Live Results</b><br />We’ve offered <a href="//www.google.com/landing/searchtips/#sportsscores">sports scores</a> in search results for a long time, but recently we’ve been working with partners to make sure you can always find the latest information.
