    I just tried it, but I think I'll stick to the normal search for now.

    Thank you for the sharing, it is interesting. But I cannot understand a major benefit of this tool...

    Cool, typed in Sniper Games and found one that i hand't played before - with a list of possible sites.

    I found it useful on a rather odd request.

    Its a different way of presenting information, for example if i wanted to know about american presidents this:

    http://www.google.com/squared/search?q=american+presidents

    Is a far more useful display of information than this:

    http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&rlz=1C1CHME_enAU350AU350&ei=i-EyS53GJ4rWtgPXmKTBBA&sa=X&oi=spell&resnum=0&ct=result&cd=1&ved=0CBIQBSgA&q=american+presidents&spell=1

    As it immediately gives me information about them.

    It also presents different sources - for example on Abraham Lincoln his image is from insidesocial.com, the description is from Wikipedia and his Date of Death is from archive.org.

    If you don't like Wikipedia, click the description for alternate views from whitehouse.gov etc.

    I also believe this at least partially user created... so its a bit like a wiki.

    If you don't Like US presidents try planets - with one click I have ordered them based on density!

    OH MY GOD ... does this mean bad for SEO's who play with PR rankings?

    as wiki states that "Rather than using ranking algorithms such as Google's PageRank to predict relevancy, Semantic Search uses semantics, or the science of meaning in language, to produce highly relevant search results"

    and google is using this very search in the above mentioned URL

    Its a cool tool that automatically builds search results in the form of an exportable spreadsheet.

    This is actually quite interesting. It's nice to see what Google developers are always up to -- their products are always unique and rather useful!
