You Tube adds Search Suggest

28 April 2008 | Posted by Neil Jackson | Search Strategy Director | Search

Neat feature shows other searches

Go to You Tube in the UK and type in a search query and as you type you will see othere suggested search terms and the number of results for each of these. Similar to the trail being run on Google labs on Suggest.

I really like this feature as not only can you quickly get to enter your search term, a bit like predictive text, but you also get to see how many results there are and maybe get some suggestions on searches you had not thought about.

So check out the search below for ‘Wii’ and you will see ‘answers’ for ‘wii fit’, ‘wii sports’, ‘wii games’ and so on!

Give it a try and see what you think, useful?

Share and enjoy:
