There have been a number of Google Search user interface tests and experiments I haven’t been able to post yet. Being that today is Labor Day (here in the US), I figured I’d cover a bunch of them in one story – since many of you want stories today.
The tests include a wider search bar, related products for YouTube snippets, Google Explore expansion, 3D/AR tests, popular products and deals carousels, and Google Translate overlay in Google Search. Here they are in no specific order.
(1) Wider search bar on Google.com via @rsrudra94:
This is the normal width of the search bar:
(2) Related products in search within YouTube video snippets:
Google > Mobile
I saw Youtube’s Related Products feature directly in SERPs.

(4) Google 3D/AR search result tests:
They’re displaying it now for single retailer listings as well, but its going to have a way bigger impact on those 10+ retailer listings in Search – a much needed source IMO knowing how much effort goes into 3D product renders. pic.twitter.com/bnwoDpPkS8

Not seeing a source link on desktop, however. pic.twitter.com/tp38iUjxaa

Now seeing a source link to the retailer that provided the image on desktop, and in this example its not a 3D render. Really nice to see more crediting of the original source in this part of search. pic.twitter.com/PJMbl0tePo

(5) Popular products and deals carousel:

(6) Google Translate in Search overlay:
🧵
Select text, click on translate, and the overlay window for translation opens on the search page.

Those are some of the new Google Search tests that I did not cover that I have had on my list for several weeks.
Forum discussion at tweets above.
We all want to be satisfied, even though we know some people who will never be that way, and others who see satisfaction as a foreign emotion that they can’t hope to ever feel.
