Cleaner, Simpler & Optimized for Touch<\/h2>\n

After experimenting since last fall, Google has decided that the new look is good enough to be made official. These changes were visible to some desktop users as early as November. The refreshed look is now available to all desktop users.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt’s cleaner and simpler, optimized for touch, with results clustered on cards so you can focus on the answers you’re looking for,\u201d Google’s senior vice president of search, Amit Singhal, said in a blog post explaining those changes.<\/p>\n

Google Adwords-Targeted Ads<\/h2>\n

The biggest change made is the way Google Adwords-Targeted Ads<\/a> are displayed. The Pink shading has been removed & replaced by a small yellow box labeled \u201cad\u201d. This change was first rolled out for ads to the mobile users in September. Google is trying to make the desktop & mobile experience unified.<\/p>\n

Google\u2019s lead design for Google Search, Jon Wiley, said on Google+<\/a>, \u201cyou may have noticed that Google Search on desktop looks a little different today.\u201d He goes on to explain how the underlines have been removed, the titles have larger font & the line heights have been evened out. Jon said this \u201cimproves readability and creates an overall cleaner look.\u201d<\/p>\n
