One of the innovations we expected to see from Google today was the introduction of Instant search. And Google hasn't disappointed us. You can already try Google Instant here.

The new interface, a marvel of modern engineering, was introduced in order to save users time. In the Instant FAQ, Google says:

Google Instant is a new search enhancement that shows results as you type. We are pushing the limits of our technology and infrastructure to help you get better search results, faster. Our key technical insight was that people type slowly, but read quickly, typically taking 300 milliseconds between keystrokes, but only 30 milliseconds (a tenth of the time!) to glance at another part of the page. This means that you can scan a results page while you type.

Google will be launching more new features for search this evening. To stay up to date with the search event live, check out Google's YouTube channel.
